Advice to Women Regarding Frequenting the Markets

Question:
He says: We seek a guiding piece of advice for women regarding their frequent going out to the markets, their speaking with the shopkeepers in the stores, and the many trials that occur there, whether for men or women, or for young girls or young boys?

Answer:
This is a calamity that has occurred in this time, which is the laxity regarding hijab, women going out to the markets, and their going to parties and other such things, while they are negligent in covering themselves, or they are adorned, or they are displaying their adornment, or they are wearing perfume. All of these are wrong; these are severe wrongs. So women should fear Allah in themselves, and fear Allah in their society, and not expose themselves and others to corruption through these matters.
And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: . He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: So the Muslim woman should fear Allah, and adhere to hijab, and adhere to modesty, and not go out except while covered and not perfumed, and not mix with men. For if she is neglected, she is not neglected. So the Muslim woman should fear Allah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: and their homes are better for them, and let them go out in a state of undress. If her prayer in her home is better than her prayer in the mosque, this indicates that covering and staying in the home is required of her. He said: If they go out to the mosques, the houses of Allah, they go out in a state of undress, meaning not adorned and not perfumed. So how about the one who goes to the markets and to the gatherings and to... a seducer and seduced, and there is no power and no strength except with Allah. Yes.
