The Ruling on Women Wearing Gold Rings
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner: A message reached us from Algeria from a noble brother who did not mention his name here. He says in this first question: Please inform us—may Allah reward you with good—about the ruling on a woman wearing gold earrings in the form of hoops. Is it permissible? We have heard a fatwa forbidding it, so what is the correct position on this? May you be rewarded with good.
Answer:
The Shaykh: The correct view is that gold hoop earrings are permissible, and there is no harm in them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) permitted gold and silk for the women of the Ummah. He said:Bulugh al-Maram 2:460 The female Companions used to wear hoop earrings, so there is no harm in that. The Muslims have reached a consensus on this. There was a rare disagreement based on some weak narrations, some of which were abrogated. The Shari'ah settled on the permissibility of gold and silk for women, whether they wear hoop earrings or not.
The Shaykh: The statement by some of our brothers among the scholars of this era forbidding hoop earrings is a weak and weaker position, contrary to the position of the people of the Sunnah and the community. It is like a consensus among the scholars that there is no harm in a woman wearing hoop earrings, such as rings, bracelets, anklets, and the like. Yes.
