What is the meaning of describing people?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Now, what is the meaning of describing people, Bandar? Does it not reveal what is under the garment? Yes, is the intent to reveal its shadow?

The Shaykh : Say the intent is to reveal its color. Its shadow, yes, that is correct.

The questioner : Yes, if it is white or black.

The Shaykh : Now, revealing the color means it must be very thin at times, such that you can see the skin through it. Even if, for example, the garment is black and you wear it, you must be able to see the skin underneath with its color. But merely the shadow is not sufficient. That is why we said that if a person has a garment underneath, for example, and someone sees the edge of the garment and only the skin, but the color of the skin is not revealed, then it is a covering. It is a covering.
