The ruling on a sewn lower garment with pockets for a person in ihram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says (may Allah preserve you): Some people have their lower garments sewn while they are in ihram. In what form?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
He says: Some people have their lower garments sewn in a circular shape while they are in ihram, and they have pockets in them in which they place what they need.
The Shaykh:
There is no harm in that. There is no harm if the ihram garment has slits and is sewn; there is no harm in that. Or if it has tears and is patched; there is no harm in that. What is forbidden is the sewn garment that fits the body, like a shirt, like a T-shirt, like a garment that encircles the body or a limb. That is what is forbidden. As for sewing the upper garment or the lower garment if it has a slit, or a tear, or if it is made with a pocket, there is no harm in that. Yes.
