A Woman Wearing the Abaya on Her Shoulder
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on a woman wearing the abaya over her shoulder? And if a woman does not listen to her husband’s words, what should he do with her regarding wearing the abaya?
Answer:
When going out, the abaya is worn on the head, not on the shoulder. It is worn on the head, like the jilbab and the large sheet, all on the head to cover the entire body, to cover the entire body. The head is part of the body, and perhaps the fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) with the head is more severe, so she covers her head and the rest of her body with the jilbab or the abaya. Yes.
