Question

Is it permissible for my wife to dress in jeans, heels, and other very provocative western and eastern attire in the boundary of our home? There is no risk of anyone entering upon my wife. This is all for my pleasure, so that I am able to better guard my gaze and be satisfied at home?

Answer

To adopt kuffaar western styles is not the way of Muslims. Their ways and styles must be viewed with contempt and disgust. Wearing their clothes and adopting their styles is showing respect and consideration to them, in fact love for their ways. Isn't this really shameful behaviour for a Muslim?

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
