The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
In Islam, private parts need to be covered. The garment to be worn should not be too tight and too thin to display the body and the color of the skin. For this reason, you do not need to wear a burka. You should not insist on it if it causes problems in the family. You do not do wrong to burka without wearing it.
