أَيْنَمَا تَكُونُوا يُدْرِكُّمُ الْمَوْتُ وَلَوْ كُنتُمْ فِي بُرُوج ٍ مُشَيَّدَة ٍ وَإِنْ تُصِبْهُمْ حَسَنَة ٌ يَقُولُوا هَذِه ِِ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ وَإِنْ تُصِبْهُمْ سَيِّئَة ٌ يَقُولُوا هَذِه ِِ مِنْ عِنْدِكَ قُلْ كُلّ ٌ مِنْ عِنْدِ اللَّهِ فَمَالِ هَاؤُلاَء الْقَوْمِ لاَ يَكَادُونَ يَفْقَهُونَ حَدِيثا ً

Wherever you may be, death will find you, even if you are in fortified towers. If any good befalls them, they say: "This is from God," and if any evil befalls them, they say: "This is from you!" Say: "All is from God;" what is wrong with these people, they barely understand any narrative!

You shall be content in your homes, and do not show off like in the old days of ignorance. You shall hold the contact prayer, and contribute towards purification, and obey God and His messenger. Godwishes to remove any affliction from you, O people of the Sanctuary, and to purify you completely.

وَالْقَوَاعِدُ مِنَ النِسَاء اللاَّتِي لاَ يَرْجُونَ نِكَاحا ً فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِنَّ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ يَضَعْنَ ثِيَابَهُنَّ غَيْرَ مُتَبَرِّجَات ٍ بِزِينَة ٍ وَأَنْ يَسْتَعْفِفْنَ خَيْر ٌ لَهُنَّ وَاللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيم ٌ

And the women who are past child bearing, who no longer seek to get married, have no sin upon them if they put-off their garments, provided they are not adorned for beauty. And if they remain as they were, then it is better for them. God is Hearer, Knower.
