The Ruling on Wearing High-Heeled Shoes

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on wearing a sandal or shoe that?

Answer:
extends above the ankles, and may make a sound when walking? It is not permissible to wear the high shoe known as high heels, or anything similar to it, nor anything that makes a sound; because this brings about arrogance and pride, and it may cause a woman to fall if she wears this high heel, or cause her foot to become unsteady. It also involves affectation and pretense for which Allah has not sent down any authority. Yes.
