The length of a woman's dress and covering her feet


352

Q: What is the length of women's dress? We are told by some people that she has to cover her feet. Is this true? Does it apply to home clothes, i.e. undershirts?


A: A woman has to cover her whole body when (Part No. 17; Page No. 301) going out. She may go out if she is covering everything even her face. In fact, a woman is `Awrah (i.e. Her entire body must be covered in public) and when she goes out, Satan makes her attractive (to men). While staying at home, she does not have to cover her feet unless in the presence of non-Mahrams (not a spouse or permanently unmarriageable relatives). May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
