  اور وہ بوڑھی خانہ نشین عورتیں جنہیں (اب) نکاح کی خواہش نہیں رہی ان پر اس بات میں کوئی گناہ نہیں کہ وہ اپنے (اوپر سے ڈھانپنے والے اضافی) کپڑے اتار لیں بشرطیکہ وہ (بھی) اپنی آرائش کو ظاہر کرنے والی نہ بنیں، اور اگر وہ (مزید) پرہیزگاری اختیار کریں (یعنی زائد اوڑھنے والے کپڑے بھی نہ اتاریں) تو ان کے لئے بہتر ہے، اور اللہ خوب سننے والا جاننے والا ہے

Yousuf AliSuch elderly women as are past the prospect of marriage,- there is no blame on them if they lay aside their (outer) garments, provided they make not a wanton display of their beauty: but it is best for them to be modest: and Allah is One Who sees and knows all things.

AsadAND [This conjunction is, I believe, meant to indicate that the verse which it introduces is connected with certain previously revealed passages, namely, verse 31 above and 33:59, both of which allude to the principle of modesty to he observed by Muslim women in the matter of dress: hence, it must be regarded as a separate "section".] [know that] women advanced in years, who no longer feel any sexual desire, [Lit., "who do not desire [or "hope for"] sexual intercourse" - the latter evidently being the meaning of nikah in this context. Although this noun, as well as the verb from which it is derived, is almost always used in the Quran in the sense of "marriage" or "marrying", there are undoubtedly exceptions from this general rule: for instance, the manner in which the verbal form yankihu is used in verse 3 of this surah (see the corresponding note above). These exceptions confirm the view held by some philologists of great renown e.g., al-jawhari or Al-Azhari (the latter quoted in the Lisan al-Arab), to the effect that "in the speech of the Arabs, the original meaning of nikah is sexual intercourse (al-wat)".] incur no sin if they discard their [outer] garments, provided they do not aim at a showy display of [their] charms. But [even so,] it is better for them to abstain [from this]: and God is all-hearing, all-knowing.

QXP Shabbir Ahemd**And the elderly women who have no interest in getting married, there is nothing wrong for them if they lay aside their outer garments in such a way as not to show adornment (24:31), (33:33). Even so, it is best for them to maintain modesty. Allah is Hearer, Knower.
