The ruling on a woman wearing a sheet in prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
One of the sisters asks and says: We hope you will inform us, is it permissible to wear a sheet for prayer if it is thin?
Answer:
If she is covered by something else, if she has covered her body with something other than the sheet; then there is nothing wrong with it. But if the sheet covers her feet and covers her head; then it must be thick and cover her. As for if the head is covered and the feet are covered, and this is extra that does not harm, praise be to Allah. But if it is not, and it is needed to cover the head and cover the feet, then it must be thick, yes.
The presenter : May Allah reward you with good.
