What is the ruling on girls' school uniforms (the *mirayil*)?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Shaykh, can we say that these *mirayils* that girls wear in our schools are from the clothing of the disbelievers?
The Shaykh : The *mirayils*?
The questioner : Of course, the *mirayil* is the uniform that girls wear, which is short.
The Shaykh : There is no problem with it, provided it is not from the clothing of the disbelievers. However, it contradicts the command of the noble verse:[Al-Ahzab 33:59] Thus, these clothes combine two misfortunes: the misfortune of contradicting the verse, and the misfortune of imitating the disbelievers.

to bring down over themselves [part] of their outer garments
يدنين عليهن من جلابيبهن
