To take your measures, it is simple and fast (5 minutes about), you only need a tape measure and to follow carefully the following instructions:

You have 2 options:

- You already have a Qamis that fits well, so you may give its measurements.

- You do not have a Qamis that fits well, therefore you will have to take measurements.

If you have a qamis that doesn’t fit will in certain places, we suggest you take the measurements on that qamis and then adjust in the areas where adjustments are needed (example: the sleeves are too short, simply add the necessary additional centimeters so that the sleeves will be to your liking).

Here is how to take measurements on body :

Length :

Measure from the shoulder's top (without paying attention to the sewing position) until over your ankle (adjust according to your preferences).  

Remember: The qamis must not extend below the ankle because the Prophet (May blessings and peace be upon Him) said: “The part of the garment that hangs below the ankles is in the Fire" (Sahih Al Boukhari 5787).

 Chest Size :

Measure your chest size by placing the meter under the arms, without inflating the chest.

Waist Size :

Measure your waist size by placing the measuring tape at your natural waistline without bringing the stomach in.

Shoulders :

Measure from one end of the shoulder to the other end of the shoulder along the top of the shoulders.

Neck :

Measure your neck by inserting one finger between the tape measure and neck (place the tape below the Adam's apple).

Arm length :

Measure your arm length by keeping the arm extended along the body (from point of shoulder to the second joint of the thumb).

Wrist diameter :

Measure your wrist diameter to the bone.
