Is it permissible to wear ornamented clothes and abayas with embellishments, and high heels, when going out? What is the ruling on displaying one's adornment (tabarruj) in public places in general? What should the questioner do with her ornamented and revealing clothes that she owns? Does she bear the sin of anyone she gives these clothes to who then wears them in front of men?
