  • Swimming With Other Women And Going To Spas

    Posted by Saba Bilal on March 24, 2025 at 2:57 am

    Assalam o Alaikum

    I believe in the parda series Ghamidi Sahab implies that even in front of women, women must observe basic modesty such as from shoulders to knee. I want to ask that in certain situations, such as in even all women swimming pools, women would be naturally more exposed ( even with a a full wet body swimming suit, the suits generally very tight). Moreover in salons, while waxing or facials u are asked to dress more scantily ( revealing shoulders and below knees generally) so to let a professional work with ease and without spoiling cloths. These are strange women but have professional credentials and attitudes and try their best to protect your modesty.

    What would be the ruling in such situations?

    This is inappropriate. If a woman adopts these things she is violating the rules of sadd e zarya, preemptive measure. These are not actual sin but can lead to one. If they don’t lead to actual sin they might be ignored.

    Thankyou for replying sir.

    I’ve had a few facials where my bare shoulders were revealed and taken all women swimming classes where I make efforts to wear as fully covering a swimming suits as possible (but even full body ones are tight in order to make swimming easier, similar to how men wear tight shorts in swimming), not only has it never lead to sin, I don’t believe there was even an the idea of it’s possibility in my head or the professionals( though I can only speak certainly of myself). Wouldn’t it be similar to to how men wear more revealing clothing in sports like it Kabadi? Where there is a purpose and intend ?

    From what I understand of your explanation, can I deduce if I try to observe modesty the best I can and trust the integrity of the professional ( by to a medical skin center or equivalent ), I can continue to benefit from skin procedures and swimming classes ?

    I watched episode 12 of parda from 23 questions series again and I believe it clarified a lot of things, if any other female is having trouble making decisions regarding these things, I highly recommend watching it since it goes into a great deal of detail regarding sadd e zariaya as well as intends and purposes.
