Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to lessen some of her clothes while she is performing prayers if she is alone? For example: Wearing half sleeves clothes?
The answer:
There is nothing wrong in that. Imam Malik has permitted for a woman to pray wearing half sleeves but inside her room not in the middle of the house because anyone may enter the house when she is performing prayers so she must be inside her room and the door is closed. Imam Malik said: "There is nothing wrong to lessen some of her clothes, for example, she can pray wearing half sleeves or her clothes cover under her knee and the rest of her leg appears if she performs prayers inside her closed bedroom.
If she performs prayers in the middle of her house, it is not permissible to let anything from her body appear except her face and her hands and it is forbidden if anything even simple things appear.
It is prohibited even for a lock of hair to appear, only the face is allowed. Some of us think there is nothing wrong if the neck appears but it is wrong because only the face and the hands are allowed not the neck nor hair nor any part of arm or leg if she performs prayers in the middle of the house.
So we advise women in Hajj (pilgrimage) to wear socks in, why? Because men and women perform prayers next to each other and may be during prostration part of her leg appears, so she must wear socks to cover all her body.
