11. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa from ibn Muskan from ibn abu Ya‘fur who has said the following:

“Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said, ‘Women perform Salah (prayer) in three pieces of clothes: Loincloth, an outer garment with sleeves, and a yashmak. It is not harmful if she uses the Yashmak as a veil and if she does not find, she can use two pieces of clothes using one as loincloth and the other as a veil.’ I (the narrator) then asked, ‘Can she use an outer garment and a sheet without a head scarf?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not an offense if she uses the sheet as a head scarf and if it is not enough, she can wear it lengthwise.’”
