A Woman Removing Her Clothes in a Place Other Than Her Husband's House

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, another questioner says: A severe warning was issued for the one who removes her clothes in a place other than her husband's house. Does this mean that a woman should not remove her clothes in her sister's house, her aunt's house, or the houses of those she trusts, and likewise in workshops and wedding halls?

Answer:
Yes, in a house where there are men who are not her mahram (a relative one may not marry), she does not remove her clothes. In her sister's house, her aunt's house, or her maternal aunt's house, as long as there are men who are not her mahram, she does not remove her clothes; rather, she covers herself and veils herself. However, if she is in a place free of men, where there are only women, there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
