The fourth one is covering your body. All right, so when we talk

00:00:04 --> 00:00:08

about coverage, what is coverage mean? Coverage has two attributes.

00:00:08 --> 00:00:12

It's closed that is neither dislike two negative attributes,

00:00:12 --> 00:00:18

neither form fitting, nor transparent. Okay? If your clothes

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

is form fitting,

00:00:20 --> 00:00:23

all right, you're not covered. Like that part of your body. We

00:00:23 --> 00:00:27

don't consider it covered. Like the leggings that people wear. I

00:00:27 --> 00:00:29

know a lot of people were liking so it's very popular for people to

00:00:29 --> 00:00:33

wear leggings, right? But we as Muslims, we can't pray with that.

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

I mean, we wouldn't we shouldn't even wear it outside of the house

00:00:36 --> 00:00:37

to be honest with you, right.

00:00:39 --> 00:00:43

But tight even for a min the tight, close to his chest, he's

00:00:43 --> 00:00:47

trying to show off all his exercise in his workout. It's not

00:00:47 --> 00:00:51

even appropriate. So the form fitting clothes, if you have that,

00:00:51 --> 00:00:54

wear it in the house only. And definitely you can't pray on it.

00:00:55 --> 00:00:58

Even if you wear it. Let's say I say I'm a I'm a brand new Muslim.

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00

Listen, just give me the bare minimum fine, you cannot pray with

00:01:00 --> 00:01:03

it. At the very least you don't pray with it. Right and eventually

00:01:03 --> 00:01:06

a Muslim should not even wear that stuff outside the house at all.

00:01:06 --> 00:01:07

Unless you're only going with

00:01:08 --> 00:01:12

to another house of women then it's fine. But or for your

00:01:12 --> 00:01:15

immediate family. Like your immediate family, your husband,

00:01:15 --> 00:01:19

your father, whatever your your son, you're allowed to have form

00:01:19 --> 00:01:20

fitting clothes on in front of them.

00:01:22 --> 00:01:26

The other attribute of clothes is that it's not transparent. If it's

00:01:26 --> 00:01:29

transparent, then it's not covered either. So if it's your see your

00:01:29 --> 00:01:35

body behind it. It's not. So all this comes in a little phrase,

00:01:36 --> 00:01:41

which says layer Sif. Well as Chef layer Sif means it doesn't define

00:01:41 --> 00:01:45

the contours of the body. Well, a chef means it does not. It's not

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47

see through it's not transparent.

00:01:48 --> 00:01:52

Now for the man who says he should cover his shoulders, and he should

00:01:52 --> 00:01:54

cover from the navel to the knee when he prays.

00:01:55 --> 00:01:59

And for the woman she has to cover everything except for her face and

00:01:59 --> 00:02:03

her hands. All right, everything has to be covered besides her face

00:02:03 --> 00:02:06

in her hands. Someone says to you, oh, why is not equality. It's not

00:02:06 --> 00:02:09

equality because they don't look the same. Okay? When they tried to

00:02:09 --> 00:02:12

sell beer, they don't put a guy they put a nice beautiful woman

00:02:12 --> 00:02:14

because that's what they know people are going to look at okay,

00:02:14 --> 00:02:18

so they don't look the same. So therefore Allah Tala also has

00:02:18 --> 00:02:19

rules that are different for each gender.
