Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His saying (peace and blessings be upon him) does he mean naked?
Answer:
Sahih al-Bukhari 115 Sahih Muslim 2128b narrated by Muslim in the Sahih. There are known opinions of the scholars regarding this:
meaning clothed in blessings but naked of gratitude.
Or clothed in garments that do not cover, and naked in reality, may Allah grant us safety, and this is the most fitting for the context.
leaning away from the truth toward lewdness and toward what is wrong, and inclining others toward lewdness and corruption, and this is the reality, and how much of that there is.
Q: Is the nakedness in the Hereafter going to happen to all women?
The Shaykh: This is a nakedness other than the general nakedness; people on the Day of Resurrection will all be naked, both men and women, but this is another kind of nakedness, nakedness from what is obtained by the grateful and those who are upright in obedience to Allah of the abundant reward, the great benefits, the lofty rooms, and the like.
Q: Is "naked" a description?
The Shaykh: A description of the one who is clothed, yes..
Q: Is it not a state (hal)?
The Shaykh: No, with the genitive case (jar) is better, because it is an indefinite noun (nakirah), and an indefinite noun is closer to being a description than a state.
His saying (peace and blessings be upon him)

كاسيات عارياتAnswer:
A well-dressed (soul) in this world may be naked in the Hereafter.
رب كاسية في الدنيا عارية في الآخرةTwo are the types amongst the denizens of Hell, the one possessing whips like the tail of an ox and they flog people with their help. (The second one) the women who would be naked in spite of their being dressed, who are seduced (to wrong paths) and seduce others with their hair high like humps. These women would not get into Paradise and they would not perceive the odour of Paradise, although its frag- rance can be perceived from such and such distance (from great distance).
صنفان من أهل النار لم أرهما: رجال بأيديهم سياط كأذناب البقر يضربون بها الناس، ونساء كاسيات عاريات مائلات مميلات، رؤوسهن مثل أسنمة البخت المائلة، لا يدخلن الجنة، ولا يجدن ريحها، وإن ريحها لتوجد من مسيرة كذا وكذاclothed yet naked
