Answer:

 

Women working without hijab

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 33 Surah Ahzaab verse 59:

O Prophet, enjoin your wives and daughters, and the believing women, that they should cast their outer garments over their persons.   It is expected that they will thus be recognized, and not molested.   Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

 

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 24 Surah An-Noor verse 31:

And O Prophet,  enjoin the believing women to restrain their gaze and guard their private parts and not to display their ‘zeenata hunna’ (beauty, adornment, etc.) except that which is displayed of itself,  and to draw their veils over their bosoms and not to display their ‘zeenata hunna’ (beauty, adornment, etc.) except before their husbands, their fathers,  the fathers of their husbands, their sons and the sons of their husbands,  their brothers,  their brothers sons, their sisters’ sons,  their female associates, and those in their possession and male attendants incapable of sexual desire,  and those boys who have not yet attained knowledge of sexual matters.   Also forbid them to stamp their feet on the ground lest their hidden ornaments should be displayed.

 

In light of the above absolutely clear guidance of the Glorious Quran, it would indeed be absolutely obligatory for a believing woman, who sincerely fears Allah and the Last Day, to cover herself appropriately in the ‘hijaab’ when in the presence of non-mehram members of the opposite sex.

 

Your Question: According to ISLAM a women working due to finance Problems at home in a office without parda is a sin

There is absolutely no sin or restriction upon a believing woman who chooses to earn a living and works in an office without a ‘purdah’ or ‘hijaab’, provided she is not in the presence of non-mehram men when not appropriately covered in her ‘hijaab’.

 

But if she works in an office where non-mehram men have access to cast their sight on her, it would indeed be absolutely obligatory for the believing woman to adorn herself appropriately in her ‘hijaab’.  If the woman chooses to be in the presence of non-mehram men without being appropriately covered in the ‘hijaab’, she indeed would be in violation and transgression of a clear Command of her Lord Creator, which would obviously be a sin in the Sight of the Lord.

 

If one trusts, obeys, and follows the guidance and commands of Allah and His Messenger (saws),   one can be assured of never ever being misled;   but if one believes, obeys and follows any other guidance, other than that of Allah and His Messenger (saws), one can be assured of being led astray.  

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone.  Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
