Muslim women bathing in the beach or river
Question
Can Muslim women bath in a river or sea in public?
Answer
Bathing in this way will obviously reveal the shape of the body to strangers that are around. Revealing the body is very immoral and shameful behaviour.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
