Wearing a Nose Ring
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q4: Is it permissible for a woman to wear a nose ring? And is it permissible to use shudhr—which is a substance applied after henna to make the henna on the hand black—? And is it permissible to use the black dye on the hand called dooj?
A4: This question includes three matters: 1. The ruling on placing a nose ring in the nose: It is permissible, because piercing the nose is for adornment, not for harm or altering the creation of Allah. 2. Applying shudhr to henna to make it black: The answer is that the Sunnah indicates the prescription of a woman dyeing her hands with henna, and the scholars have established that it is recommended, and leaving it off is disliked, and adding shudhr to it is without blame. 3. From this, the ruling on using the black dye called (dooj) is known, but if the dooj has a substance that prevents water from reaching the skin, it is obligatory to remove it when performing the full ritual bath for major ritual impurity, menstruation, or post-natal bleeding, and when performing the ablution for prayer. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
