The Ruling on the Vaginal Ring
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah bless you, Honorable Shaykh. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on the ring made of copper that is inserted in some pharmacies and called the vaginal ring?
Answer:
If it has a medical or therapeutic property, there is nothing wrong with it. However, if it is worn based on the belief that it benefits or harms, then it is not permissible. This is shirk (associating partners with Allah) or a means to shirk. But if it has a medical property, there is nothing wrong with that. I recall that a decision was issued by the Council of Senior Scholars regarding wearing this item for treatment. There is a difference between wearing it for treatment and wearing it based on belief.
