Ladies Extra Long Salaah Burkah

What is a salaah burkah?

It is a loose garment pulled on over normal clothing for prayer, giving full coverage without changing outfit. It is kept where salah happens rather than worn out.

What does extra long mean here?

It is cut longer than a standard salaah burkah so the coverage stays full through ruku and sujood. Taller women in particular find standard lengths ride up.

What fabric is it made from?

It is made from a soft, stretchy spandex, which is what lets it move with you rather than pulling as you go down into sujood. The stretch also makes the sizing forgiving.

What colours does it come in?

It is stocked in black and white. Both are chosen to sit easily with whatever is worn underneath.

Is it one piece or two?

The construction is described on this page. Extra long styles are usually pulled on in one movement, which is part of their appeal.

Is it suitable to keep at work or in a bag?

Yes, that is one of the most common uses, since it goes on quickly over ordinary clothes. Stretch fabric also folds down smaller than a stiff garment.

How do I wash it?

Wash cool on a gentle cycle and hang to dry rather than tumble drying, which is what protects elastane over time. Avoid high heat when ironing.

Will it fit over normal clothing?

Yes, it is designed to go over what you are already wearing rather than replace it. The stretch is what makes that comfortable rather than tight.

Is it a good gift?

It is a practical gift because it gets daily use, though it helps to know a preference on length and colour. Many households own more than one.

What else do you stock for prayer wear?

The range covers salah tops and garments, abayas, hijabs and scarves alongside prayer mats. They sit together on our ladieswear and womens pages.

How much is delivery and how long does it take?

Can I return this item?
