such women as are past child bearing and have no hope of marriage there is no fault in them that they put off their clothes so be it that they flaunt no ornament but to abstain is better for them and god is allhearing allknowing.
والقواعد من النساء اللاتي لا يرجون نكاحا فليس عليهن جناح أن يضعن ثيابهن غير متبرجات بزينة وأن يستعففن خير لهن والله سميع عليم
