The flaunting of a woman's beauty (tabarruj) and her mixing with non- men are among the grave sins. What then, if this is compounded by her frequent travel without a mahram while she is adorned and displaying her beauty? The noble contains a severe warning for women who are "clothed yet naked." The wife must abandon this forbidden act, wear the legal (-compliant) , and seek a suitable, honorable job. Indeed, whoever fears Allah – He will make for him a way out and provide for him from where he does not expect.
