The abaya is an over garment worn by some
women in Muslim-majority countries. It is the traditional form ofhijab /
Jilbab, or Islamic dress, for many countries of the Arabian
peninsula. It is sometimes adopted in other parts of Islamic world.
Traditional abayas are black, and may be either a large square of
fabric draped from the shoulders or head, or a long black caftan.
The abaya should cover the whole body save face, feet, and hands. It
can be worn with the niqab a face veil covering all but the eyes.
Some women choose to also wear long black gloves, so their hands are
covered underneath theabaya.
The abaya is the national dress in places like the United Arab
Emirates and some of the other Arab countries.
Some
Muslim women living in the west also cover themselves as part of
their religion and culture. Due to the difficulty of finding
Islamic stores
nearby, Muslim women in the United States usually buy Islamic
clothing online. Abayas are known by various different names but
serve the same purpose, which is to cover up. Abaya styles also
differ from region to region. Some abayas have embroidery on black
material while other abayas are brightly coloured and have different
forms of artwork done across the abaya.
