Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Well, I have three questions. Regarding women who use colored contact lenses that are placed in the eye so that the color becomes blue.
The Shaykh:
If there is a need, if it benefits the vision, there is no harm, if it benefits the vision and soothes it.
The questioner:
Just for adornment.
The Shaykh:
Leaving it is better and more cautious.
The questioner:
It is not forbidden, I mean, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
As long as there is nothing [wrong], well, this is a matter of precaution.
