Sura - 24
The Authorized English Translation of the Quran, Sura - 24 Light (Al-Nur), translated from the original by Dr. Rashad Khalifa, Ph.D.
Dress Code for Believers*
[24:30] Tell the believing men that they shall subdue their eyes (and not stare at the women), and to maintain their chastity. This is purer for them. GOD is fully Cognizant of everything they do.
[24:31] And tell the believing women to subdue their eyes, and maintain their chastity. They shall not reveal any parts of their bodies, except that which is necessary. They shall cover their chests, and shall not relax this code in the presence of other than their husbands, their fathers, the fathers of their husbands, their sons, the sons of their husbands, their brothers, the sons of their brothers, the sons of their sisters, other women, the male servants or employees whose sensual drive has been nullified, or the children who have not reached puberty. They shall not strike their feet when they walk in order to shake and reveal certain details of their bodies. All of you shall repent to GOD, O you believers, that you may succeed.

Dress Code for Women
[33:59] O prophet, tell your wives, your daughters, and the wives of the believers that they shall lengthen their garments. Thus, they will be recognized (as righteous women) and avoid being insulted. GOD is Forgiver, Most Merciful.
[33:60] Unless the hypocrites, and those with disease in their hearts, and the vicious liars of the city refrain (from persecuting you), we will surely grant you the upper hand, then they will be forced to leave within a short while.
[33:61] They have incurred condemnation wherever they go; (unless they stop attacking you,) they may be taken and killed.
[33:62] This is GOD's eternal system, and you will find that GOD's system is unchangeable.

YUSUFALI: O Prophet! Tell thy wives and daughters, and the believing women, that they should cast their outer garments over their persons (when abroad): that is most convenient, that they should be known (as such) and not molested. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
PICKTHAL: O Prophet! Tell thy wives and thy daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks close round them (when they go abroad). That will be better, so that they may be recognised and not annoyed. Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.
SHAKIR: O Prophet! say to your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers that they let down upon them their over-garments; this will be more proper, that they may be known, and thus they will not be given trouble; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

Does Islam require a Muslim woman to veil her face?
Hijab allows a Muslim woman to cover her hair, neck and bosom, but leave her face open. It is strikingly similar to the dress worn by the Christian nuns. It has been adopted in Muslim majority countries like Malaysia, Indonesia and large parts of the Middle East. It faces no ban in general in the West, except that in France students in public schools cannot wear it as it is thought to be a religious symbol.
Burqa, or niqab, in addition covers the face and thereby hides the identity of the person. Burqa provides a mesh in front of the eyes, while niqab allows a slit for seeing through.
Quranic prescription of dress for Muslim women is contained basically in two verses: 33:59 and 24:31.
In verse 33: 59, Allah says (all translations by A. Yusuf Ali):
"O prophet! Tell thy wives and daughters and the believing women that they should cast their outer garments over their persons (when abroad): that is most convenient that they should be known (as such) and not molested: and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."
The immediate reason for this revelation was to distinguish the free believing women from the female slaves so that bad elements would not molest the former.
Yusuf Ali in his commentary on the above verse states: "The object was not to restrict the liberty of women, but to protect them from harm and molestation under the conditions then existing in Medina." He further states: "This rule was not absolute: if for any reason it could not be observed, then 'Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.' "
The critical Arabic word in the original verse is jilbab, which has been translated by Yusuf Ali as an outer garment; a long gown covering the whole body; or a cloak covering the neck and bosom.
Whatever may be the interpretation of the word jilbab, it is quite obvious that the requirements were quite strict.
In verse 24:31, Allah lays down:
"And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands."
It is seen clearly from the above verse that (1) Allah does not specifically ask for covering of the hair or face, (2) allows display of certain parts of beauty and ornaments (that must ordinarily be exposed) and (3) specifically calls for covering of the bosoms.
Moreover, Allah has not set any details of what could be seen or not be seen of the women, possibly to allow space for different cultures, climates and environments that would ultimately come under the umbrella of Islam.
