55
لا جُناحَ عَلَيهِنَّ في آبائِهِنَّ وَلا أَبنائِهِنَّ وَلا إِخوانِهِنَّ وَلا أَبناءِ إِخوانِهِنَّ وَلا أَبناءِ أَخَواتِهِنَّ وَلا نِسائِهِنَّ وَلا ما مَلَكَت أَيمانُهُنَّ ۗ وَاتَّقينَ اللَّهَ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كانَ عَلىٰ كُلِّ شَيءٍ شَهيدًا

(Saheeh International)

There is no blame upon them [i.e., women] concerning their fathers or their sons or their brothers or their brothers' sons or their sisters' sons or their women or those their right hands possess [i.e., slaves].1 And fear Allāh. Indeed Allāh is ever, over all things, Witness.
  • It is permissible for a woman to appear before these people without complete covering and to be alone with them. The brothers of both parents (uncles) are included as "fathers" or "parents," according to ḥadīth.
