1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:05,460
What are the limits of a Muslim woman's
attire before her sons and daughters?

2
00:00:07,820 --> 00:00:08,960
Praise be to Allah.

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:13,320
No text addresses it.

4
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:24,540
The rule is that what Sharia states
in general terms has no set limit.

5
00:00:25,940 --> 00:00:30,700
And if language sets none,
it is referred back to custom.

6
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,040
Thus, the limits of a woman's clothing.

7
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:44,320
Before her mahrams or before women.

8
00:00:45,900 --> 00:00:52,800
It goes back to custom.
This is what custom means.

9
00:00:54,860 --> 00:01:02,360
It is what people of sound minds
and sound instincts habitually do.

10
00:01:04,940 --> 00:01:08,320
So customs influenced by ideas
are disregarded.

11
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,820
Rather, they are customs approved
by sound nature, not rejected.

12
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,120
So whatever a woman customarily uncovers.

13
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:26,620
In the presence of women or
her mahrams, it may be uncovered.

14
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,350
For example, the upper arms.

15
00:01:32,580 --> 00:01:39,040
the breast when nursing the child,
the lower legs, the hair, and the like.

16
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,840
Whatever is not customarily
uncovered may not be uncovered.

17
00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:50,900
And, as I said, pay no heed
to custom influenced by other ideas.

18
00:01:51,940 --> 00:01:54,280
And natural dispositions changed.

19
00:01:54,380 --> 00:01:56,960
Allah help us. It's now common
among some Muslims.

20
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,800
A woman is not properly clothed
before her mahrams or other women.

21
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:03,860
This is not allowed.

22
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:04,940
From another angle.

23
00:02:06,020 --> 00:02:16,580
A woman, with her mahrams and women,
must avoid clothes that outline her body.

24
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:22,680
I mean tight clothing
that outlines what must be covered.

25
00:02:24,140 --> 00:02:25,580
This is not permissible.

26
00:02:26,460 --> 00:02:31,460
For a woman to wear it, neither
before her mahrams nor before women.

27
00:02:32,460 --> 00:02:37,460
She must also avoid garments
that are see-through.

28
00:02:39,300 --> 00:02:43,280
and reveal what lies beneath
that must be covered.

29
00:02:45,020 --> 00:02:49,340
So some women come and wear
a garment.

30
00:02:50,820 --> 00:02:53,000
Its upper half is transparent.

31
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,820
The skin can be seen through it.
This is not allowed.

32
00:02:57,620 --> 00:03:01,660
For a woman to wear it before women
or before her mahrams.

33
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,000
So once we know this, we say:
The criterion.

34
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:13,696
Strictly speaking in this matter,
the reference is sound custom, unaffected.

35
00:03:13,780 --> 00:03:15,240
By ideas. Yes.
