Yes technically but my understanding is that the main reason why it's as low as the navel is so that women can conveniently nurse their children in front of other women. But oh let's not get into the whole nursing in public bit because eeewwww grooosssszzzz lolz.
Perhaps one of the wisdoms in hijab actually, all of that is covered even in public. Depends on the style and how it is tied etc. of course.

So? Thats their business, not yours. Its a women's beach for women, you won't be there, nor will you ever be there.

This is one of my beefs with Muslims, we are in everyones business. CUT IT OUT!

That's AWESOME! I wish we had one of those here. It's not that hard to cover awrah, just wear a one piece or tankini with some knee-length men's swim trunks over them.

I miss the wind in my hair too. The last time I felt that was in Pakistan 3 years ago when I snuck out on the roof at midnight without my hijab (the walls are high around the house but servants can still pop out unexpectedly). Great. Now I want a women's beach really bad

nursing in public is so nasty. its like peeing in public.. lolzz.
You were being sarcastic, right?

Not sure why you'd go "topless" (it's not really topless if you're covered up to your navel anyway). It's a women's-only beach, not a nude beach.


Anyway, it's a great idea. Not everybody will be covering their awrah, of course, but there are ways in which you can.

I'm opposed to women being granted sovereign territory as it will encourage others to secede...

A womans place is on the catwalk not on a women only beach !

I don't know. I don't think i'd feel comfortable on a beach with women in bikinis. I mean, that's why i don't go to beaches here.

We have quite a few Women-Only beaches here too. I'm going to go to one soon inshaAllah.

But anyway, you don't need/have to reveal your awrah or go in a bikini.

All-Women places are pretty cool.

Asalamu Alaikum,

Are you talking about Wild Wadi? I always wanted to go!

But yes, same in Saudi (though not as nice as in Dubai), but apparently they're opening a womens only beach in Dammam?
