Question:
A woman asks: Is it permissible for a woman to wear high-heeled shoes?
Answer:
This is permissible, but she should wear ordinary shoes, because high heels, especially if she goes out of the house in them, involve tabarruj (a woman's display of her adornment) before men. Also, there is danger to her if she falls or stumbles because of them. There are many precautions to consider; it gives people the impression that this woman is tall, when she is not. Yes.
