Is it permissible for a woman to appear in her house abaya in her friend's house?

A woman's 'awrah (intimate parts) in front of other women is from the navel to the knee. She is permitted to expose anything other than that. If the domestic abaya covers this 'awrah, then there is no harm in wearing it when visiting a friend, provided there is assurance that no non- men will see her if the abaya does not meet the conditions for a woman's dress in front of them.
