يَا أَيُّهَا
النَّبِيُّ
قُل
لِّأَزْوَاجِكَ
وَبَنَاتِكَ
وَنِسَاءِ
الْمُؤْمِنِينَ
يُدْنِينَ
عَلَيْهِنَّ
مِن
جَلَابِيبِهِنَّ
ذَلِكَ
أَدْنَى
أَن
يُعْرَفْنَ
فَلَا
يُؤْذَيْنَ
وَكَانَ
اللَّهُ
غَفُورًا
رَّحِيمًا

Prophet, tell your wives, daughters, and the wives of the believers to cover their bosoms and breasts. This will make them distinguishable from others and protect them from being annoyed. God is All-forgiving and All-merciful.
