The ruling on a woman wearing short, transparent, or tight clothing at women's weddings
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner, your sister in Allah, Noun 'Ayn from Kuwait, says: At weddings, women wear clothes that include short garments exposing half of the leg, sleeveless dresses, and tight, transparent dresses. Is it permissible to wear such clothes in the presence of women?
Answer:
It is not permissible to wear such clothes. Rather, she must wear covering, loose-fitting clothing, and she should not expose anything in the presence of women except what is customary to expose. This is because it leads to laxity in dress, and she may become a role model for other women who see her and imitate her. Then, the wearing of these revealing clothes, which expose the legs and arms, spreads, and this woman becomes the cause of women following her example. So, she must adhere to covering clothing, and she should not expose anything in the presence of women except what is necessary to expose and what is customary to expose, such as the face, head, hands, palms, and feet.
