Question:
The questioner says: Recently, it has become widespread among women to wear the Punjabi, which is the Pakistani style of dress. What is the ruling on this dress for women?
Answer:
Clothing that does not cover the woman is not permissible, whether it is Pakistani or not. What is required of the woman is clothing that is covering, ample, and loose, not tight, which covers her from the gaze of others and protects her when she goes out. It should not contain adornment; it should not be clothing of adornment, but rather ordinary clothing that does not attract attention. As for clothing that contradicts this, it is not permissible, whether it is Pakistani or not. Yes.
