Question:
What is the ruling on decorating the hand with henna in the shape of a rose, or otherwise, or for a woman to apply henna to only half of her palm? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that. Using henna for women and dyeing the hair is permissible for women because of their need for it, but she should do what is customary for the women of the country. Also, she should not display this dye to men who are tempted by it; rather, she should cover her hands when going out or when attending a place where there are men. In that case, she should veil herself and cover her hands to avoid fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). Yes.
