"O children of Adam, We have bestowed upon you clothing to conceal your private parts and as adornment. But the CLOTHING OF RIGHTEOUSNESS - that is BEST. That is from the signs of ALLAH that perhaps they will remember." Quran 7:26
I am from a muslim country, Turkey and most of the Turkish women don't wear burkinis at beaches. ıt is not a MUST in Islam.
