Every aspect of the religion of Islam relating to women revolves around modesty and shame. It is in this regard that Islam commands women to remain within the confines of their homes, being totally concealed from the gazes of strange men, and not to leave their homes without a valid Shar\u2019ee need.<\/p>\n

The manner in which a woman is commanded to perform her Salaah \u2014 commencing from her attire for salaah to her postures during Salaah \u2014 all clearly point towards the aspect of concealment.<\/p>\n

Hence, let alone the various other ibaadaat of Deen, the salaah of a woman alone illustrates the great degree of modesty and shame a woman is required to display. Hence, she is commanded to adopt the very same degree of modesty and shame which she displays in her salaah in other departments of her Deeni and worldly life.<\/p>\n

Concealment<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is an undisputed fact that the physical composition of women is different to that of men. Shari\u2019ah has taken this into consideration and thus ordained distinct rulings for men and women in many important aspects of Deen.<\/p>\n

The underlying factor in the distinct rulings for women is that they have been commanded to do everything in a manner that is more concealing for them. This difference has also been considered in the various postures of salaah. A woman is commanded to carry out her postures in a way that is least revealing and most concealing.<\/p>\n

Imaam Baihaqi (rahimahullah) has mentioned:<\/p>\n

All the various aspects in a woman\u2019s salaah that differ from a man\u2019s salaah (i.e. the manner of fulfilling the various postures of salaah) are all based on satr (concealment). A female is commanded to carry out every posture of her salaah in a manner that conceals her body shape and limbs the most.<\/em><\/p>\n

Hazrat Abdullah bin Umar (radhiyallahu \u2018anhuma) says that during the era of Hazrat Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam), when performing salaah, the women were instructed to draw their limbs together as close as possible.[1]\n
