The ruling on the shoulder cloak if it is loose
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on wearing a loose shoulder cloak that covers the woman's body from all sides and is concealing? Is it permissible to wear it?
Answer:
Since it is required that the woman be covered and use a concealing cloak or veil, the enemies have targeted this cloak to corrupt it. They have tampered with it and created shapes for it that turn it into a form of adornment rather than a form of covering. The purpose of the cloak is to cover the entire body from the head to the feet and the heels; this is the intent. It should not be tight, but worn over the clothes as a precaution for the woman. This is the purpose of the cloak. It should also have no adornment or embroidery, but be plain, with no embroidery or decoration, and it should not be worn on the shoulder but on the head. This is the required cloak.
