Wearing a ring or bracelet in prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa number ( 18665 )
Q: I have heard that it is obligatory for a woman, when she goes to perform the prayer, to wear a ring or bracelet on her hand, and that this is to avoid imitating men. I hope you will answer this question for us.
A: It is obligatory for a woman to cover herself with complete and ample covering over her body in the prayer, except for her face if there is no non-mahram man present. As for wearing a ring or bracelet in the prayer, there is no basis for it; it is not prescribed. Whoever says that it is prescribed or obligatory has erred in that. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
