The ruling on wearing a Strap or Belt or Pouch Belt
|
Question:
What is the ruling on wearing a belt for the Hajj pilgrim who is a Muhrim (i.e. in Ihram) in order to keep his money in it? Is this permissible for him or is it considered a stitched garment that is not permissible to wear?
|
Answer:
There is no harm in wearing a belt and things similar to it. Likewise, a strap or a handkerchief for tying one’s waist garment and saving one’s needed possessions, such as money and other things, is allowed. And success is from Allaah.
