A woman’s ‘Awrah inside Salaah – if there are non-mahram men about
Our Shaykh, Muhammad ibn Hizaam -may Allaah preserve him- was asked the following question:
Question:
The questioner says: Regarding the statement of the prophet ﷺ:
((لا يقبل الله صلاة حائض إلا بخمار))
‘Allah does not accept the prayer of a woman unless she is veiled’ – How is it that she’s allowed to reveal her face and her hands, yet she is commanded to cover her feet?
Answer:
Firstly, there’s a difference of opinion with regards to the authenticity of this Hadeeth; and according to those who say it is ‘Hassan’ (fairly authentic), the meaning is that she has to cover her hair and her neck when praying. Nothing should be left uncovered, except her face [and hands]. That’s if she is praying infront of her relatives.
But if she is praying infront of strange men she has to cover up completely, including her face [and hands]; because the prophet ﷺ said:
“The woman (i.e. Her entire body) is ‘Awrah, and when she goes out, Shaytan seeks to tempt her.”
So the Hadeeth (quoted in the question) refers to women inside Salaah; whether she is praying alone or infront of her relatives, she still has to cover her head; covering herself up in this way is part of beautifying herself in Salaah, so she mus’nt reveal anything except her face and hands.
As Allah said:
{یَـٰبَنِیۤ ءَادَمَ خُذُوا۟ زِینَتَكُمۡ عِندَ كُلِّ مَسۡجِدٍ}
‘O Children of Adam! Dress well whenever you are at worship’
[Surat Al-A’raf 31]
However, she mus’nt uncover her and hands in the presence of strange men. When there are strange men around, she is has to cover her entire body.
