The ruling on wearing a ring and using an umbrella for shade for a person in ihram
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, regarding a person in ihram, Abu Ubaydah asks: Is it permissible for him to wear a diamond ring, or a silver ring called white gold, or a watch, or to place an umbrella over his head?
Answer:
There is no harm in wearing a ring, except for a gold ring, which is forbidden, whether in ihram or not. As for a ring made of anything other than gold, there is no harm in wearing it, whether it is diamond or otherwise; only the gold ring is forbidden. Likewise, there is no objection to a person in ihram taking shade under a tree, under a roof, under the roof of a car (a car with a roof), or in a house; there is no harm in that. Or he may take shade with an umbrella, but he should not place it directly on his head; rather, he should hold it above his head so that it does not touch his head. As for taking shade with something held above his head, there is no harm. Yes.
