In this volume of his work, the author begins a debate, dedicating two full volumes to address the objections often raised regarding social mixing and the practice of keeping a woman's face uncovered in Muslim society. This is a tradition in Islamic studies, where scholars present their views in opposition to other scholarly opinions. They outline the views they disagree with, highlighting the basis and supporting arguments before responding to them.

The author provides an in-depth analysis, illustrating that the rulings specific to the Prophet's wives do not apply to other women. Consequently, emulating the Prophet's wives in these particular aspects is neither required nor recommended.
