The questioner:
In his second question, our brother Rami al-Rahimi asks: Is it permissible to sell the clothing that a woman wears in the presence of her husband, considering that some women may go out wearing it and thus be displaying their adornment?
The Shaykh:
If these clothes do not cover the woman’s body adequately, it is not permissible to wear them when going out. She must go out in clothing that is ample and covers her entire body. Yes.
The questioner:
What is the ruling on selling such clothing?
The Shaykh:
Selling is permissible, but wearing it is not permissible except in a manner that provides coverage and modesty. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
