Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is forbidden for a man to wear earrings in the nose or ear, as this constitutes imitation of women. As for women, they are permitted to wear nose rings under certain conditions, and they are permitted to wear more than one earring in a single ear if it is customary and does not involve imitation of disbelieving women or immoral women, provided that it does not fall under extravagance, boastfulness, or seeking fame.
