Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: What is permissible for a woman to reveal in front of her mahrams?
Answer:
She may reveal before her mahrams what is customarily revealed for work, cooking, and the like, but she must not reveal to them anything that is a source of fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). She reveals to them only the extremities that are not a source of fitnah for them.
