Does the ruling of the verse of Hijab cease to apply after the cessation of the reason mentioned by the exegetes, which is distinguishing the free woman from the slave woman, knowing that the verse is Allah's saying: ((O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves [part] of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful))?
