Does it need to cover the knee or be approaching the knee? Also, how should men and women cover when offering salah?","answer":"According to the Hanafi school, the entire knee must be covered, whereas the Shafi school requires only a small portion of the knee to be covered. Each school has their own evidence to support their position. As for women, the Shafi school mandates that the entire body must be covered except for the hands and face, while the Hanafi school allows the feet to be uncovered as well.","tags":[{"_id":"668d9fef0b76658b4c232985","tag":"Salah: Validity","count":156},{"_id":"668d9fde0b76658b4c232779","tag":"Women: Modesty","count":60},{"_id":"668d9fe00b76658b4c2327b5","tag":"Men: Modesty","count":37}],"createdOn":"2024-07-09T20:40:04.708Z"}
