What is the ruling on a man wearing a silk tie?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is forbidden for males to wear ties made of pure natural silk or those in which silk is the predominant material, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Indeed, these two are forbidden for the males of my Ummah." However, those made of artificial silk are permissible. Scholars have permitted a small amount of silk, such as a patch not exceeding four fingers in width.
