Explanation of his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): “A woman is an awrah; when she goes out, Satan covets her,” and a mention of the places of a woman’s adornment.

The Shaykh : Thus, our Lord (Mighty and Majestic), in this verse, only permitted women to display to their mahrams the places of adornment on their bodies, and nothing else; the places of adornment on their bodies, and never more than that. And to be certain of this meaning, it is obligatory for us to recall the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him and his family): meaning he looks at her and inspires in her what he inspires to seduce her, just as if a person were to say to another: “Welcome, how beautiful you are! How handsome you are! How charming you are!” and so on, . Thus, this woman, who is entirely an awrah except for what the Shari'ah has exempted; we have learned from the apparent adornment that the Shari'ah, regarding her apparent adornment in front of non-mahrams, has exempted only the face and the hands. And regarding the mahrams, it has exempted the places of adornment. So what are the places of adornment that existed in the time of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him and his family)?
That is limited to known places. First, for example, bracelets on the wrist. Second, the dumlij, which was placed on the upper arm of the woman. Third, the necklace, a chain placed on the neck and part of the chest. Finally, the anklet, to which our Lord (Mighty and Majestic) referred and clarified that it is part of the hidden adornment when He said: . So the woman who deviates, even slightly, from the Shari'ah hijab and the Islamic etiquettes that the Muslim woman must adorn herself with and cultivate, strikes her feet so that men can hear the sound of the bells that were placed on the anklet, giving it a jingle. This jingle draws the attention of men to her. This is what some women used to do, especially in the early days of Islam when they were new to it. So Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He) disciplined them with this verse and said: .
Thus, this is the last known adornment in the early period of Islam. If we know from the previous verse that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) permitted women to display the places of adornment, and we have identified these places, it becomes clear to us what are the places that it is permissible for a woman to display in front of her father, her brother, her brother’s son, and ultimately in front of Muslim women.
Thus, we have the hand and the forearm, up to near the upper arm where the dumlij was, then we have the head, which has some adornment on the ears and the neck as we mentioned, then the foot and part of the lower leg where the anklet is. These are the places that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) permitted the woman to expose in front of her mahrams and also in front of her Muslim sister.
