Are there any scholars who have issued a ruling against immodestly dressed women or advised a ruler to punish them?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The question is ambiguous, and the intended meaning of judging immodestly dressed women is unclear. If the intention is to clarify the ruling on immodest display (tabarruj) and the sin incurred by its doer, then scholars have written about this, such as Sheikh Ibn Baz in his book: "Tabarruj and the Danger of Women's Participation with Men in Their Field of Work," and Sheikh Abdul-Baqi Ramadan in his book: "The Danger of Tabarruj and Free Mixing."
