Question:
Can a woman wear any garment of her choice for Ihram?
Answer:
Yes, a woman can wear any garment she wishes for Ihram. There is no restriction on a specific type of clothing during Ihram, contrary to what some people believe.

Since women interact with men during Hajj, it is advised for her to wear simple clothes that do not cause any temptation.
