33:59

یَٓا اَیُّهَا النَّبِیُّ قُلْ لِاَزْوَاجِكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ وَنِسَٓاءِ الْمُؤْمِنٖینَ یُدْنٖینَ عَلَیْهِنَّ مِنْ جَلَابٖیبِهِنَّؕ ذٰلِكَ اَدْنٰٓى اَنْ یُعْرَفْنَ فَلَا یُؤْذَیْنَؕ وَكَانَ اللّٰهُ غَفُورًا رَحٖیمًا

Ya ayyuha alnnabiyyu qul liazwajika wabanatika wanisai almumineena yudneena AAalayhinna min jalabeebihinna thalika adna an yuAArafna fala yuthayna wakana Allahu ghafooran raheeman

Translations

O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves [part] of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful

Saheeh International

O Prophet! Tell thy wives and thy daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks close round them (when they go abroad). That will be better, so that they may be recognised and not annoyed. Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful
