Pre-Islamic Innovation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q3: In the month of Muharram, women gather at the house of a married woman, and this happens every year at the house of a recently married woman. They come to this woman and bring with them a quantity of water. The woman they are visiting wears strong, heavy clothing so that she does not get cold. They splash this water on the woman and the rest on each other, young and old women, every year. We forbid them from doing this, but they say: “These are our customs and traditions.”
A: This is a pre-Islamic innovation that is not permissible to do, because it has no basis in the pure Shari'ah.
And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
