The Limit Of The Awrah Of The Women To Other Muslim Women





Aboo Waheeda As-salafee Language: English Format: PDF Pages: 30 Size: 1 MBThis is the introduction to our discussion , a small treatise discussing one important subject –it is dedicated to all the Muslim women who have even a speck of jealousy and love for their religion- and similarly to the men who are in control of households –and have some sense of jealousy and shyness regarding their sisters , their wives , and their mothers-. And this is the topic of : What is the limit of what the woman can display in front of her sisters and the Muslim women ? Before getting into the discussion ; it is important to know the definition of some terms which will be re-appearing in this treatise InshaAllaah...


Mahram : These are relatives whom a person is not allowed to marry . Either due to bloodrelationship (like the father , mother , brother, sister..) , or due to marital relations (like thefather and the grand-father in law , or the mother in law), or due to breast feeding (meaning theperson whom breast fed you she becomes your Mom , and the person who breastfed from thesame women , they become your sisters or brothers).


Awrah : This is the parts of the body which are impermissible to be displayed. It is different inthe men and the women , and It has different rulings in regards to different sets of people .Some of them :


a. The awrah of the Men ; By agreement of the majority of the Scholars , it is what is betweenthe navel and the knees. In front of men or women. But covering up properly is better.


b. The awrah of Women : It has different rulings in relation to different people :- The awrah of Women to non-Mahram men (strange men) : There are two famous opinionsfrom the Scholars :


1. It is all of her body.


2. It is all of her body except the face and the wrists.


The discussion for this is famous through history ; and this is not the place for that InshaAllaah.It is worth while noting though , that all the scholars agree that it is better and mostrecommended for the women to cover all her body.


- The Awrah of the Women to the Mahram : This is part of our discussion in this treatise , soInshaAllaah it will come to be clear.The Awrah of The Women to other Muslim Women : This is the main discussion. There are twofamous opinions between the Scholars :
1. It is like the Awrah of the men to men : meaning it was what is between the navel and theknees.
2. It is not the same as that of the men – it is what she reveals in the normal routine of herhouse ; like the head , the feet and the hands. This is what is the closest to the truth.This is our discussion and it will be clarified with all clarity, InshaAllaah.Note : As for between the husband and the wife : then there is no limits as to what can be seen.

But whosoever is forced by necessity without willful disobedience, nor transgressing due limits, (for him) certainly, your Lord is Oft­Forgiving, Most Merciful.] (Al-An`am: 145)

Then will come after that, seven hard (years), which will devour what you have laid by in advance for them, (all) except a little of that which you have guarded (stored). Then thereafter will come a year in which people will have abundant rain and in which they will press (wine and oil). (Yusuf: 45-49)
