Allah has commanded the Muslim woman to wear the Hijāb and conceal her ‘Awrah and her body by the traditional outfits available in her country in the presence of the men who are not directly related to her. She is not allowed to take off her Hijāb except before her husband and her Mahram males, who are the men she is permanently forbidden to marry. The Mahram males are the following: The father up to all levels (i.e. grandfather, great grandfather, etc.), the son down to all levels, paternal uncles, maternal uncles, brother, nephew, stepfather, father-in-law up to all levels, stepson down to all levels, milk-brother and the husband of the nursing mother, given that whoever becomes non-marriageable through lineage also becomes non-marriageable through breast-feeding.
