The Ruling on Sewn Izaar and the Buttons of the Rida for the One in Ihram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: I see many of the pilgrims performing Hajj and 'Umrah wearing an ihram, or rather, wearing a sewn izaar that has rubber threads holding the izaar in place to prevent it from falling and tightening around the belly. They also make buttons or fasteners for the rida.
Answer:
It is not permissible to make buttons or fasteners. One should wrap the izaar around his body and secure it with a belt, using whatever belt is available to him. As for making a sewn izaar with a neck opening and then wearing it, this is not permissible. Some of the shaykhs have issued a fatwa permitting it—may Allah forgive them—but it is incorrect.
