Is it permissble for a woman to wear a long skirt that clings to her waist instead of an abayah or a dress that also clings to her waist instead of an abayah/jilbab? (Revealing her waist shape, as there are sisters who wear these beautiful dresses with a headscarf but you can see the tightness of the waist as it clings on and has become a fashion in the UK)

My father and I use clothing for prayers that covers our awrah and is loose, however at times, it shows the silhouette and shape of what is underneath (such as our arms and legs) when it is exposed to light. It does not show the color of our skin though. Is it permissible to pray in these clothes? They are common prayer clothes which are used by many Muslims around the world.

What about a sister who works in a mixed environment in the West (engineering) because: 1.She went to school for her trade and that’s all she knows how to do. Her parents sent her out like a man to be educated, live alone, and provide for herself. 2. Noone will or can financially support her (Her new husband has no job and even when he works it is not enough to support the family, she has debts to pay off, and she has to support her son from a previous marriage)3. There are no jobs in her area (America) that are all female. Even there are males in the pregancy wards in hospitals and in Daycares. And she does not have training for those things. 4. She asked her boss to work from home and he said no. Also, she has made duaa to Allah for more than a year to help her to change her situation. Noone cares about the Muslim women who are from the West, except Allah. Noone is financially helping them so they can stay home and take care of their children. Not even the families. Lot’s of women are in this situation. What is the Ruling?
