During the pre-Islamic days women circumambulated the Ka'ba nakedly, and said: Who would provide cloth to cover the one who is circumambulating the Ka'ba so that she would cover her private parts? And then she would say: Today will be exposed the whole or the part and what is exposed I shall not make it lawful. It was in this connection that the verse was revealed:" Adorn yourself at every place of worship" (vii. 31).  

كَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ تَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ وَهِيَ عُرْيَانَةٌ فَتَقُولُ مَنْ يُعِيرُنِي تِطْوَافًا تَجْعَلُهُ عَلَى فَرْجِهَا وَتَقُولُ الْيَوْمَ يَبْدُو بَعْضُهُ أَوْ كُلُّهُ فَمَا بَدَا مِنْهُ فَلاَ أُحِلُّهُ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ { خُذُوا زِينَتَكُمْ عِنْدَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍ}  

"Women used to circumambulate the Kabah naked, saying: 'Today some, or all of it will appear And whatever appers I don't make is permissible.' Then the following was revealed: 'O Children of Adam! Take your adornment to every Masjid.'"  

كَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ تَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ وَهِيَ عُرْيَانَةٌ تَقُولُ الْيَوْمَ يَبْدُو بَعْضُهُ أَوْ كُلُّهُ وَمَا بَدَا مِنْهُ فَلاَ أُحِلُّهُ قَالَ فَنَزَلَتْ { يَا بَنِي آدَمَ خُذُوا زِينَتَكُمْ عِنْدَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍ }

كَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ تَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ وَهِيَ عُرْيَانَةٌ وَتَقُولُ [البحر الرجز] الْيَوْمَ يَبْدُو بَعْضُهُ أَوْ كُلُّهُ وَمَا بَدَا مِنْهُ فَلَا أُحِلُّهُ فَنَزَلَتْ {يَا بَنِي آدَمَ خُذُوا زِينَتَكُمْ عِنْدَ كُلِّ مَسْجِدٍ} [الأعراف 31]

[Machine] During the pre-Islamic era, women used to circumambulate the house while they were naked, with a cloth covering their private parts. They would say, "Today, part or all of the sea appears, and what is visible is forbidden to us." Then, this verse was revealed: "Say, 'Who has forbidden the adornment of Allah?'" [Surah Al-A'raf, 32]  

كَانَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ تَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ وَهِيَ عُرْيَانَةٌ وَعَلَى فَرْجِهَا خِرْقَةٌ وَهِيَ تَقُولُ [البحر الرجز] الْيَوْمَ يَبْدُو بَعْضُهُ أَوْ كُلُّهْ فَمَا بَدَا مِنْهُ فَلَا أُحِلُّهْ فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {قُلْ مَنْ حَرَّمَ زِينَةَ اللهِ} [الأعراف 32]
