Navigating Awrah Questions as a New Hijabi
Assalamu alaikum everyone, I'm a sister planning to embrace hijab this year, and I've been digging into different scholarly views to get it right. Some fatwas I've come across have opened my eyes to aspects of awrah that many in my circle find surprising-like rulings on the feet. I've tried sharing these with close family and friends, though it's tough when they're hesitant to accept it. Recently, I stumbled upon a fatwa including the chin as part of awrah, and honestly, it felt strange to me. The reasoning didn't quite click, and it seemed impractical since I've only seen niqabis cover it. I'm reaching out because I want to avoid the same oversight I caution others about. If anyone has evidence from the Quran or Sunnah on this, please share-it would really help ease my mind. Any advice for dealing with these doubts would be appreciated too, insha'Allah. May Allah guide us all to what pleases Him. 🤍
