The Ruling on Men Using Henna at Weddings
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A brother is asking about the groom, and the ruling on henna for him, and placing roses on the henna?
Answer:
We do not know of any basis for this, and henna is from the practices of women, and from the characteristics of women; it is not from the practices of men. For a woman to put henna on her hands or on her feet, this is from the characteristics of women and from their adornment for their husbands. However, if in a country it is their custom for a man to put henna on his hand, or on his head, or elsewhere, as a custom for him, not for imitating [women], not being an imitation, but rather it is their custom... for men, then there is no imitation in it, if it is their custom that men do it, and it is not exclusive to women. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
