Muslim women bathing in the beach or river

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Can Muslim women bath in a river or sea in public?

Bismillaah

A: Bathing in this way will obviously reveal the shape of the body to strangers that are around. Revealing the body is very immoral and shameful behaviour.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
