Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. You mentioned a moment ago that the adornment of the belt is forbidden. What does that mean?
Answer:
The belt is the waistband, the belt known as the hiyasa or the sabaka. If it contains some silver, there is nothing wrong with it, because the Companions wore belts adorned with silver, such as the adornment of the belt, the hilt of the sword, and the like. These are things that are reported to have existed in the time of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) and that they used. Yes.
