What is the ruling on a woman removing her clothing and displaying her adornment in women-only wedding halls?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Regarding a woman removing her clothing and displaying her adornment in public places like wedding halls, what is the ruling now?

The Shaykh: Yes.
The student : Is this permissible?

The Shaykh : In front of women, or what?

The questioner : Women’s wedding halls, specifically for women.

The Shaykh : ... A woman with a woman. Clarify for me what is meant by the question. A woman’s awrah (part of the body that must be covered) in front of a woman is known.

The questioner : If she exposes her awrah.

The Shaykh : It is not permissible, of course.

The questioner : Her awrah. A woman’s awrah in front of a woman. Is this permissible? Her places of wudu (ablution), for example...

The Shaykh : This is not called an awrah...
The student : It is adornment...

The questioner : I mean, if she removes her hijab and exposes her hair...

The Shaykh : Your father brought up the heat in this matter, haha, my brother. This is not an awrah.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : Or one of the two.
The student : He means her awrah in front of men.

The Shaykh : We do not understand you, and you do not understand us.

The questioner : I mean, I intend, Professor.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : If she exposes her hair, what should we say?

The Shaykh : May Allah guide you. Her hair is an awrah in front of her Muslim sister.

The questioner : No, it is not an awrah.

The Shaykh : So what is the meaning of the question? You do not even know how to ask, so we do not suspect the audience.

The questioner : ... Men.

Another questioner : ... The intended meaning, Professor, is the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).

The Shaykh : That is not the intended meaning either.

The questioner : But I want to understand the question.

The Shaykh : We did not get it. May Allah reward you with good, haha.
The student: Hehehe.

The Shaykh : I will repeat the question for you.
The student : I have conceded...

The Shaykh : I will try my luck.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : Did I understand the question or not? Your question is: Is it permissible for a Muslim woman to expose her hair in front of her Muslim sister? Is this your question?

The questioner : It is not this.
The student : In wedding halls.
Another student: ...

The Shaykh: Hehehe...
The student : No, he means in wedding halls.

The questioner : I said in wedding halls, meaning.

The Shaykh : And if I said in wedding halls, what is the difference between wedding halls and the community of sorrows? What is the difference? And I restricted it for you: does she expose more than her awrah or not? I gave the example of her hair. What is the difference? Do you think that this restriction you repeated and confirmed more than once will save you from my saying that we did not understand you? It will not save you.
The student : It saves him in one aspect, one aspect.

The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
The student : It saves him if he means wedding halls where people mix and where disbelieving women also enter.

The Shaykh : May Allah guide you, May Allah guide you.
The student : ... .

The Shaykh : May Allah guide you. Do you agree to this patching up? Did you say no?

The questioner : Of course not, because the disbelieving women...
The student : Keep quiet, it is better for you. Another student? Excuse me.
Another student: Keep quiet.
Another student: I want to patch it up for you, meaning I want to patch it up for you.

The Shaykh: Hehehe.

The questioner : I say that now, in these wedding halls, does the woman expose only her hair and her places of wudu?

The Shaykh : May Allah guide you, May Allah guide you... I have not seen you like this, my brother. Every question has an answer.

The questioner : Fine, let us consider it a second question, our Professor.

The Shaykh : It is not a second question. This is not a second question. Now, your wife and my wife, we are confident in them. She exposed her hair, and others exposed even their armpits.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : That is not what you want.

The questioner: Yes.

The Shaykh : Fine, so if my wife exposed her hair, what is wrong with that? Opening the door for patching up...
