What is the ruling on a girl's walk that resembles the walk of fashion models? Does it fall under the scope of Allah's saying: "And let them not strike their feet [on the ground] thereby to make known what they conceal of their adornment"? And can this walk be considered natural?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
A woman is commanded to avoid every action or word that incites fitna, and she must be modest in her dress, speech, and gait, in obedience to the Almighty's saying: "Then one of the two women came to him, walking shyly" and His saying: "And let them not stamp their feet so as to make known what they conceal of their adornment." The matter worsens if the gait imitates that of immoral women or disbelievers, due to the Prophet's (PBUH) saying: "Whoever imitates a people is one of them."
