Question:
May Allah reward you with good. Is it permissible to wear a short sleeve in the presence of a brother or a father, where the sleeve does not reach the elbow?
Answer:
This is not advisable because of the fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) it entails. A woman should not expose to her father or to her male mahram (a relative one may not marry) anything other than what is customarily exposed out of necessity, such as the hands, head, face, and feet. These are things that are customarily exposed in the presence of male mahrams out of necessity. However, exposing the arm, the leg, or the chest is not permissible, or is prohibited, because of the fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) it entails and the lack of necessity for exposing it. Yes.
