My Advice to the Women - The Manners of the Woman Leaving (exiting) the home (house)

- The Hijaab- Not using perfume- A light walk, so that the (bing) noise of her shoes is not heard, Allah ta'ala says: "...and let them not stamp their feet so as to reveal what they hide of their adornment." [Suratun-Noor:31]

- And if she walks with her sister and there are some men, she does not speak with her companion (i.e. her sister), and this does not mean that the woman's voice is 'awrah, but the men hearing the voice of the woman, it is possible that it could lead to fitnah.

- That she should ask for permission from her husband if she is married

- If she is going a distance which is considered traveling, she doesn't exit except with a mahram

- Not mixing with men

- To be endowed with shyness

- To lower her gaze

- Not taking off her clothing in other than her house, if she means with that displaying (herself), verily it comes on the Prophet (sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam) that he said, "any woman who takes off her clothes in other than her husband's house, verily revealed (unveiled) the sutrah between her and her Lord"
