Awrah is the minimum covering during prayer and before non mahram.

Herjihad- I wanted to point out that the awrah of men and women is not the same.

{{The awrah of a man and a woman are the same, from the naval to the knee.  Most people are more cautious than this culturally and wear shirts or full dresses most of the time.}}

In the house, before mahrams too, modesty is recommended. Though women can uncover their head and wear shorter dresses. The rest I think is evident about the sleeping together and changing etc

I believe the awrah of the woman (for mahrams) is from above the breast to just below the knee..I could be mistaken but it was discussed in our group (women's) after Jummuah last week. It came from the Imam's wife.

"Every good deed is charity whether you come to your brother's assistance or just greet him with a smile.

Bismillah,

No.  If it weren't allowed for the breast to show, women would never breastfeed in front of other women and children, but they do all over the Muslim communities.  Think about it.  This is the minimum, not the everyday house dress habits!  She asked the minimum, and this is it.

Funny, I was the Imam's wife for a few years, and I didn't know it counted for anything so serious as making my statements more valid.

Salaamu Alaykum

Al-Hamdulillah (From a Married Muslimah) La Howla Wa La Quwata Illa BiLLah - There is no Effort or Power except with Allah's Will.
