Prayer with bird-shaped earrings
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: A relative of mine asked me about the earrings she wears in her ears and prays in them. She asked me, and I told her not to pray in them, because the two earrings are in the complete shape of a bird, specifically a duck. He says: Is my statement and my prohibition of it for her correct?
Answer:
Yes, if it is in the shape of a bird or in the shape of a living creature, it is not permissible for her to wear it, neither in prayer nor otherwise. As for wearing jewelry in prayer and covering it, there is nothing wrong with that, provided it is free from image-making. Yes.
