Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is what the bride wears, known as al-tashri'ah, considered forbidden, given that it is said to be 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 you say that there is imitating the disbelievers in it, then there is no doubt that imitating the disbelievers is not prescribed. This ranges from disliked (makruh) to forbidden (haram) depending on the extent of the imitation. If the imitation is strong, then imitating the disbelievers is forbidden; if it is weak, then imitating the disbelievers is disliked. Please proceed.
