Woman's ankle exposed during salaah

Q: If the ankle of a woman is exposed for the duration of her entire salaah, is the salaah valid?

A: The ankle should not be exposed during salaah. However, if the ankle was exposed during the salaah, then since the ankle is less than a quarter of the limb, the salaah will be valid. The ankle is part of the shin.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
