Wearing Jewelry in the Festival Prayer and Choosing the Imam
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The women in the festival prayer take those who are not married, not adorned, and not wearing jewelry. Shaykh, does the hadith imply that the women used to wear jewelry in the festival prayer?
The Shaykh : Yes, but did they take it out? Wearing it is not required.
The questioner : But, I mean, she can adorn herself.
The Shaykh : She may wear it; she can have earrings and a ring, but she does not take them out. This is not prohibited. Yes.
The questioner : The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) started with them when he went to the women.
The Shaykh : We do not know. The Messenger sometimes chose some of the Companions even if others were better than them. It is well known that Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) was the mu'adhdhin (caller to prayer) for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). So perhaps it happened that his choice fell on this man at that time.
