The abaya and the jilbab are two traditional garments often worn by Muslim women. However, there are some notable differences between the two.
An abaya is a long, loose-fitting robe that is usually worn over everyday clothing . It usually consists of a light, flowing fabric, often cotton, silk, or chiffon, and is often used to cover a woman's body. Some abayas may have embroidery, beading or other embellishments, but most of them are simple and understated.
A jilbab on the other hand is a traditional Islamic fashion garment that covers the body and face of women that is long and loose that covers the entire body of a woman, except the hands and feet. It is often worn with a hijab. The jilbab is considered an additional means of conforming to the standards of modesty in Islam.
In conclusion, although the abaya and the jilbab are often confused, they are actually very different. The abaya is more casual and can be worn for any occasion, while the jilbab is more formal and better suited for special occasions or cooler times. Both garments are designed to cover a woman's body and to respect Islamic customs and traditions, but they have distinct characteristics that set them apart.
