Is it permissible to wear an expensive and beautiful wristwatch to tell time, especially during study, instead of taking out one's phone?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is permissible for a woman to wear the aforementioned watch, even if it is an adornment in itself, whether she intends to beautify herself, know the time, or combine both intentions. It should be noted that the watch is worn on the wrist, which is among the parts that must be covered in front of non- men.
