Is it permissible to work in embroidery on women's clothing?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Embroidering clothes with pure and permissible materials is lawful, as it is part of Allah's adornment for His servants, and falls under His saying, the Almighty: "And not display their adornment except that which is apparent thereof." It becomes unlawful if it leads to an external prohibition, such as when the worker knows that the buyer will use it for ostentation and tempting youth.
