What the bride wears, which is called "al-tashri'ah," is it considered forbidden?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is what the bride wears, which is called "al-tashri'ah," forbidden because they say it is imitating the disbelievers in terms of color and clothing?
The Shaykh : I actually do not know this custom that you are referring to, but if you are accurate in your description, and that is your statement that there is imitation of the disbelievers in it; then there is no doubt that imitating the disbelievers is not prescribed. This ranges from disliked (makruh tanzihi) to forbidden (makruh tahrimi) depending on the nature of the imitation. If the imitation is strong, then the imitation is forbidden; and if it is weak, then the imitation is disliked.
Please proceed.
