Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh: Yes.
The questioner: Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh: And upon you peace.
The questioner : How are you, Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, I am well.
The questioner : We want to ask a question, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh: Go ahead.
The questioner : The limits of a woman in front of women; can you explain them to us?
The Shaykh : What limits?
The questioner : The limits of a woman in front of women.
The Shaykh : The limits of a woman.
The questioner : Yes, in front of women.
The Shaykh : You mean a woman's 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered).
The questioner : A woman's 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered).
The Shaykh : May Allah guide you. I want to define for you the limits of a woman's 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) in front of women. Her entire body is covered, except if she wants to perform wudu' (the ablution for prayer) in front of women, then she does not need to cover the parts of her body that she must uncover to be able to wash the limbs. So these uncovered limbs are the ones she is permitted to uncover in front of women while sitting with them. Is the answer clear?
The questioner : I heard that from the navel to the knee in front of female mahrams (a relative one may not marry).
The Shaykh : I asked you, did you hear me? Yes.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : I asked you, did you hear my question?
The questioner : What? I am speaking on the phone, O Shaykh, from the post office, and there is a lot of noise.
The Shaykh : Yes, I am telling you, for this reason I am telling you, did you hear my answer?
The questioner : Yes, I heard your answer, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh : What is it?
The questioner : That she does not uncover anything except what is uncovered in wudu' (the ablution for prayer) only.
The Shaykh : Okay, so what is the benefit of you saying that you heard them say from the navel to the knee? Did you hear my question? The connection was cut.
