The Etiquette of Women walking in the Street..

Surah An-Nur

The Etiquette of Women walking in the Street:-

Allah says:
"And let them not stamp their feet..." [24:31]
- During Jahiliyyah, when women walked in the street wearing anklets and no one could hear them, they would stamp their feet so that men could hear their anklets ringing. Allah forbade the believing women to do this. 
- By the same token, if there is any other kind of adornment that is hidden, women are forbidden to make any movements that would reveal what is hidden, because Allah says: "And let them not stamp their feet..." to the end of it. 
- From that, women are also prohibited from wearing scent and perfume when they are going outside the home, lest men should smell their perfume. 
- As the Prophet salAllahu alayhi wa sallam said:
"Every eye commits fornication and adultery, and when a woman puts on perfume and passes through a gathering, she is such and such" -- meaning an adulteress..

May Allah guide us (muslimahs) to be strong righteous pious Muslim women ameen
