Applying mehndi patterns
Question
Is it permissible for a woman to put pattern mehndi on her palm and the back of it. I have heard that it is a Hindu culture especially if it is put on the back only.
Answer
As long as this application does not resemble the styles of kuffaar and their patterns, it is permissible.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
