I am visiting a Muslim friend's home, where I will meet her family, what to wear?

Question

I plan to wear long jeans, a long sleeved cotton shirt, and socks and shoes, which I will remove at the door. Will her family think I am dressed inappropriately? I do not want to disrespect them, but I believe this is a modest outfit?

Answer 1

A long-sleeved shirt that your bra doesn't show through and that shows no cleavage or belly. A long skirt (preferred) or pants that do not fit tightly. I would wear my hair up to take the focus off your uncovered head since you are meeting them for the first time. You're not Muslim and should not be expected to cover your head unless you live in a country that demands that sort of thing. You are a wonderful person for being so concerned that you show respect to your friend's family. I hope they show you the same amount of respect as a non-Muslim visitor to their home. Best of luck and try to relax :)

Answer 2

Well, I think you're sufficiently well-dressed Sunshine girl. You need not worry as long long as you're decently dressed. I admire your attitude, modesty and respect for others. Keep it up that way and you'll be well-respected by others around you, irrespective of whatever religion they practice.  

Answer 3

hey no worries, i live in muslim nation and visit muslims all the time...its doesnt really matter at all, just dont wear something that is too exposing...no need to remove earings or accesories....hey proper muslims  accept diferent religeons and should not be offeneded in anyway wat so ever if ur not wearin a hijab....

gd luck

Answer 4

What your planing on wearing is fine

Answer 5

Just wear a decent cloth and be your own self.

Answer 6

:) Glad to hear that u want to be respectfull.

yeah the clothings that you described are fine--InshaAllah (God Willing)

(Pls. note these are not the clothings described in Islam)

But as u r a non-muslims i think these clothings are modest enough.

When you talk them try to talk to them about thier religon, they will love to explain to you.

May Allah guide u---Ameen

Answer 7

You friend sounds really sweet and so does her family.. So in this case I dont think it would be a problem to wear anything you want.. Instead if you go and wear what you dont normally wear her parents will think your the type of person who can please people by wearing the same dress code as them..

Go to your friends house and be yourself.. dont try to act as if your someone else because you never know they might see you at the mall and your all different.. So just go there and be your self..

May Allah bless you sis ; )

Good luck.. <3

Answer 9

Just dress modestly, nothing revealing, low cut or tight.

I think it's really good of you to be reseaching into this and being concerened on showing them respect.

That's really sweet! Good on you for being respectful (hard to find these days)

You'll be fine, don't worry.

Answer 11

dress simply.wear a shirt which covers your tighs and jeans or any trouser.You can wear jewellry.If its fine with you,then wear a stroll.

Answer 12

What you're planing to wear is fine.

Answer 13

f only musilms were as modest asu make them out o be, I love my religion, but theres lots of hypocrisy

Answer 14

She will see that your not wearing a Hijab and curse at you.

Asker: Why do you have to dress to please someone?

Asker: They should respect your beliefs and not judge you on the way you dress shouldn't they?

Answer 15

Wear something which is not revealing nor tight fitting.  Jewelry is not a problem!
