{{Main|Haram#Clothing and adornment}}
[[Islam]], founded in the seventh century CE, laid out rules regarding the attire of both men and women in public.  Gold adornments and silk clothes are [[Haram|prohibited]] for men to wear, as they are luxurious, but they are permissible for women.  Men are also required to wear the ''[[Ihram clothing|ihram]]'' clothing while on [[Hajj]], or annual pilgrimage to [[Mecca]].

''[[Hijab]]'' generally refers to various head coverings conventionally worn by some Muslim women,<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2021/06/29/religious-clothing-and-personal-appearance/|title=9.
