Dress & Attire

Q: I wanted to know the ruling on wearing musk tahārah by women? It is known that women aren't supposed to wear perfume out of the house, so this question is with regards to in the house

Q: To what extent do women have to lower their gaze with and towards other women if they do (when there’s no fitnah)? I know that you can’t see from below the navel to the knee and including the knees, back and stomach. 

Now in a normal setting among other women, everyone is fully covered but not always in “modest” clothing since it’s females. So in some areas clothes are tight like when wearing a t-shirt for example or trousers. When they wear clothes like this for example, the shape of their body is shown. Are we sinful if we look at their body? Or if we see the shape of things that are apparent or showing (when there is no fitnah)?

Are we supposed to be lowering our gaze as females to other females too? Because when they move etc. even then things naturally show, so what do we do? Are we sinful if we’ve looked or if we’ve seen anything? 

Q: What falls under attractive colours for women's clothing, with examples? 

Is any colour fine as long as they're dark? Example, darker shades of maroon, sage green, etc.

Q: I have long hair (zulfah). I want to cut it all off. Is there a specific day or time that I should have the hair cut?

Q: Is black dye permissible for eyebrows?

Q: Please advise if the following is permissible to do on ones hair.

Q: I would just like to know what's the ruling regarding a perfume having an alcohol scent in the notes. 

I want to purchase the Kayali Chocolate Oud and it says there is a rum scent as one of the notes. I see a few of their perfumes have alcohol scents as well. From my understanding they do not use the actual alcohol for the scent.

Q: Is it permissible for a woman to keep long nails, provided it is before 40 days?

Q: Mufti Saheb, I heard that according to the Hanafi, Maaliki and Hambali mazhabs, it is not permissible for a male to shave his beard or to trim it shorter than a fist length. However, according to the Shaafi’ee mazhab, shaving or trimming the beard is only makrooh tanzeehi. Hence, if a person shaves or trims his beard, it will merely be disliked and he will not become sinful. Is this the correct view of the Shaafi’ee Mazhab - that they regard shaving and trimming the beard to be makrooh tanzeehi?
