The ruling on a woman wearing a garment with short sleeves
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh Salih, I love you for the sake of Allah, and my question is: What is the ruling on a woman wearing a garment with short sleeves that cover only a quarter of the upper arm, and what is the criterion in this matter?
Answer:
This is not permissible if she goes out in it to men or to her male mahrams. She goes out in it to men, whether they are her mahrams or strangers, but strangers are more severe. It is not permissible for her to go out with her legs, arms, or chest exposed. This is forbidden for her. As for strangers, she must observe the full hijab such that nothing of her is visible to them. As for her male mahrams, she may show them what she shows to women: the face, the two hands, the feet, and the head. There is nothing wrong with that. As for the rest of the body, she covers it from women and from her male mahrams. May Allah reward you.
