Question

What is the awrah of a woman in front of male mahrams?

Answer

It is the stomach till the knees and the back. However, in times of fitnah it is best to exercise precaution and cover those parts of the body that may lead to fitnah.

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.
