Interpretation Of Verse 24:60 By Ghamidi Sahb Contradicting Other Scholars
According to Javed Ahmad Ghamidi, the “Thiyaab” mentioned in verse 24:60 is the same as Khimar/Dupatta/scarf from verse 24:31, therefore the old women can take off their khimars/dupatta and there’s nothing wrong with it.

But this interpretation contradicts with many other contemporary scholars who have very similar views of Javed Ahmed Ghamidi. For example Dr Shabir Ally explains that 24:60 talks about an outer garment/cloak, which women would wear when going out, that’s not the same as khimar/dupatta/scarf

(In the past Dr Shabir Ally made multiple videos with Dr Shehzad Saleem. He also invited Dr Shehzad Saleem on his programme multiple times. Their views are very similar on most of the things, but Dr Shabir’s understanding of 24:60 doesn’t align with Javed Ahmed Ghamidi)
Another scholar Dr Khaled Abou El Fadl, who also has very similar views as Ghamidi Sahb on many other things described the thiyaab mentioned in 24:60 as outer garments/cloak, not as dupatta/scarf

Even when we look at the classical tafsirs, they say the thiyaab means a cloak/outer garments, not the khimar/scarf/dupatta
(it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing) Ibn Mas’ud said about (outer) clothing…”The Jilbab or Rida’.” A similar view was also narrated from Ibn Abbas, Ibn Umar, Mujahid, Sa’id bin Jubayr, Abu Ash-Sha’tha’, Ibrahim An-Nakha’i, Al-Hasan, Qatadah, Az-Zuhri, Al-‘Awza’i and others.
Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs:
(As for women past child-bearing, who have no hope of marriage) and do not need to get married, (it is no sin for them) for such women (if they discard their (outer) clothing)…
they would not be at fault if they put off their clothes such a robe a cloak or the facial mask over a head veil in such a way
Why did Ghamidi Sahib come to the conclusion that the thiyaab in 24:60 means the same thing as khimar/dupatta/scarf from 24:31, when everyone else says thiyaab means a cloak/outer garment and not khimar?
