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).

[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]
