Can women wear pants above ankle?
Question
Its fashionable for women in hijaab to do this right now. I thought it was haraam. Is it?
Answer
Yes, it is compulsory for women to cover their ankles in front of non-Mahram males.
The women should be discouraged from emulating the norms and fashions of the women of the west.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
