Ruling on Wearing Sunglasses
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: What is the ruling on wearing sunglasses?
I do not see sunglasses as permissible except for a person whose eyes need them. Without a need, it is wrong; because one will not be able to look at the sun without the glasses later on. Try not to wear sunglasses or any other glasses unless the eye needs them, such that if you leave off the sunglasses, the eye tears up and heats up; in that case, there is nothing wrong with it.
There are very old scholars who look at the crescent moon, while the young people who have sunglasses do not look at it. But the eye is like the body; if you see it tired from reading or staring at something, you stop, just as if you were short of breath, you stop walking. It is one of the organs.
