The ruling on a woman praying with her feet uncovered
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to pray in her house with her feet uncovered if she is with her mahram (a relative one may not marry)?
Answer:
No, it is not permissible. It is obligatory for her in prayer. A woman’s ‘awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) in prayer is different from her ‘awrah outside of prayer. Her ‘awrah in prayer is her entire body, except for her face, provided there are no non-mahram men present. If there are non-mahram men present, she must cover her face as well, and nothing of her should be visible.
