Sewing the edge of the izar and making it circular
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, there are many questions. Here, there are those who sew the edge of the izar, making it circular around their body like a skirt for women. Is this action permissible?
Answer:
No, this is not permissible. This is like trousers and like a thobe, so this is not permissible. The izar is wrapped around the lower body and secured with a belt or the like. As for sewing it so that it takes the shape of a sewn izar, this is not permissible. And whoever issued a fatwa that it is permissible has erred. Yes.
