Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this is a student asking, and she says: One of the teachers at their school says that if a woman has more than one hole in her ear, it is imitating fornicators. Is her statement correct?
Answer:
I do not know where she got this from, that fornicators pierce their ears. I do not know about this statement; I do not know about it. If she wants to fornicate, she will do so even if she does not pierce her ear. I do not know about this statement. The default is that it is permissible to pierce the ear for jewelry out of need. As for this being a sign of fornicators, that requires proof. Yes.
