Question:
May Allah be merciful to you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is called the Moroccan bath has spread among women. Is it permissible to use it? And is it permissible to hire women to perform this bath in the house?
Answer:
If it is in the house and she is covered, and there is no religious objection to the bath—I do not know of any—but if she is covered in her house and does not go out, there is nothing wrong with it. However, if she goes out of her house for it and goes to the place, entering it for a fee, in front of people and employees, this is not permissible. Yes, Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
