The Muslim Woman `s Dress

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيم 
 In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful 

 Requirements in dress
The first requirement : Extent of Covering 
The dress must cover the whole body except for the areas specifically exempted. The Qu`an states in Surat ul Nur 24;30-31 (( Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty : that will make for greater purity for them : And Allah is well acquainted with all that they do. And say to the believing woman that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty ; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily ) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, thei fathers , their husbands` s fathers , their sons , their husbands ` s sons , their brothers or their brothers` s sons , or their sisters` s sons , or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex , and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O you believers! Turn all toward Allah that you may attain bliss )) 
These Ayats contain , among other thing , two main injunctions: 
1-A Muslim woman should not display her beauty and adornment (zeenah)except for that which must ordinarily appear of it ,or that which is apparent. . 
The word "zeenah " (all that which beautifies) lends itself to two related meanings : a) natural or bodily beauty, and b) acquired adornment such as rings bracelets , and clothes. The part of zeenah, exempted from the above injunction, was interpreted in two ways: 
a. The face and the hands. This is the interpretation of the majority of the jurists, past and present ( and as the statements of Malik, Ash-shafiy ,Abu Hanifa and Ibn Hanbal ) This interpretation is confirmed by Ijma (consensus)that a muslim woman is allowed by Islam to uncover her face and hands during pilgrimage and even during the prayers, while the rest of her body is regarded as awrah (that which should be covered) This interpretation is based on the authority of Prophet Muhammad (All` s blessing be upon him) .
b. Whatever appears of the woman`s body owing to uncontrollable factors such as the blowing of the wind ,or out of necessity such as the bracelets or even the outer clothes themselves. 
2- The headcovers (khumur) should be drawn over the neck slits (juyuoob) .
Khumur is the plural of the Arabic word "khimar" which means a headcovers , Juyoob is the plural of the Arabic word "Jaiyb" refers to the neck slit (of the dress) . This means that the headcover should be drawn so as to cover not only the hair,but it should also be drawn over the neck and to be extended so as to cover the bosom. 

THE SECOND REQUIREMENT : LOOSENESS (Will be continued )
