﴿وَالْقَوَاعِدُ مِنَ النِّسَاءِ اللَّاتِي لَا يَرْجُونَ نِكَاحًا فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِنَّ جُنَاحٌ أَن يَضَعْنَ ثِيَابَهُنَّ غَيْرَ مُتَبَرِّجَاتٍ بِزِينَةٍ ۖ وَأَن يَسْتَعْفِفْنَ خَيْرٌ لَّهُنَّ ۗ وَاللَّهُ سَمِيعٌ عَلِيمٌ﴾
[ النور: 60]
24:60 And women of post-menstrual age who have no desire for marriage - there is no blame upon them for putting aside their outer garments [but] not displaying adornment. But to modestly refrain [from that] is better for them. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishAnd the elderly women that no longer experience menstruation, or can no longer give birth, nor have any desire to marry again, there is no sin upon them if they do not wear some of their outer garments i.
e.
overcloak and veil, as long as they do not expose the beauty they have been commanded to conceal.
However, for them to wear those garments is better for them than to discard them, enhancing veiling and chastity.
Allah is all-hearing of your statements; none of them are hidden from Him and He shall requit you for them.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And as for women past child-bearing who do not expect wed-lock, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain (i.e. not to discard their outer clothing) is better for them. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation
Such elderly women as are past the prospect of marriage,- there is no blame on them if they lay aside their (outer) garments, provided they make not a wanton display of their beauty: but it is best for them to be modest: and Allah is One Who sees and knows all things.
Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri
And the Qawa`id among women who do not hope for marriage, it is no sin on them if they discard their (outer) clothing in such a way as not to show their adornment. But to refrain is better for them. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower.

24:60 And women of post-menstrual age who have no desire for marriage - translate in arabic
والقواعد من النساء اللاتي لا يرجون نكاحا فليس عليهن جناح أن يضعن ثيابهن غير متبرجات بزينة وأن يستعففن خير لهن والله سميع عليم
سورة: النور - آية: ( 60 ) - جزء: ( 18 ) - صفحة: ( 358 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
And those of the women who are past reproductive life ( post menopausal) who have lost hope of matrimonial union are absolved to take oft their outer vestment provided they do not show or display any fictitious additions or adventitious ornaments which draw forth mens interest or cause them to come to them by influencing their appetites. However, if they conform their life and conduct to the principles of morality and use their outer garment, it is much better for them and may guard them against temptation and from being supposed. And Allah is Samiun and Alimun
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(24:60) There is no sin for such elderly women as are past the age of marriage, *92 if they lay aside their outer graments *93 provided that they do not mean to display their adornment *94 . Nevertheless, if they behave modestly, it would be better for them: for Allah hears everything and knows everything.
And women of post-menstrual age who have no desire for marriage - meaning
*92) Literally, "the seated women". This means those women who are no longer capable of bearing children, who no longer cherish sexual desires, and who cannot excite the passions of men.
*93) Literally, "if they I ay aside their clothes". Obviously it cannot mean that they should strip themselves naked. That is why all the jurists and commentators . are agreed that it implies the outer garments which are used to hide the adornments as enjoined in AI-Ahzab: 59.
*94) "Tabarruj " is display and exhibitionism. When used with regard to a woman, it would imply the one who displays her charms and adornments before other men. The permission to lay aside the outer garments is being given to those old women who are no longer interested in personal embellishments and whose sex desires are gone. But if they still have a hidden desire smouldering in their hearts and an urge to display, they cannot avail of this permission .

اور جو عورتیں جوانی سے گزری بیٹھی ہوں، نکاح کی امیدوار نہ ہوں، وہ اگر اپنی چادریں اتار کر رکھ دیں تو اُن پر کوئی گناہ نہیں، بشرطیکہ زینت کی نمائش کرنے والی نہ ہوں تاہم وہ بھی حیاداری ہی برتیں تو اُن کے حق میں اچھا ہے، اور اللہ سب کچھ سنتا اور جانتا ہے
