The conditions for a Muslim woman's in the presence of non- men or when going out are that it must cover the entire body—with a preference for the obligation of covering the face and hands—, that it should not be tight, describing the body's contours, nor thin, revealing what is beneath it, and that it should not resemble the clothing of men, disbelieving women, or immoral women. Additionally, it should not be a garment of fame, nor should it be perfumed when going out.
