[BLUEcuda]

If we're going to do that, we better develop some software to help us, otherwise its going to take a long time.

And the "is so and so Salafi", lol classic.

Anyway, Salafitalk are pretty crazy, they've pretty much badmouthed every group/imam etc on the earth, lol, even the local imam where I live. Thats an achievement. Not one to be proud of, but still its an achievement.

no, not tikahs. Bindhis- like, sparkly little stickers- they stick on their foreheads, kinda between the eyebrows...like hindus.

But some of those are cute.

do u remember when it was hot to stick those little crystals like around your eyes or like, the arch of your eyebrow? im gonna bring that back.

What's a tikkah? I googled it, and nothin...

[Timbit]

Not the big round dots, but some of the other ones.
Crystals are not cool. Unless you're getting married. But even then... I wouldn't do it.

Jewellery around your eyes should be minimalist.
One eyebrow piercing max.


Variable: It's jewellery for your forehead. You probably found some chicken dishes when you Googled it.

aw, i miss the crysals. i totally rocked those when i was like 14. i dont support eyebrow piercings.

Tikkahs are cool. But should be limited to brides, little girls, and maybe- if ur super close to the bride, then you can wear one as well. a little one.

and this is the fatwa on tikkahs/bindis/crystals and eyebrow piercings.

People, Tikkah = a desi delicacy consisting of marinated, barbecued meat.
Tika = some form of desi jewellery worn on the forehead. I'm not sure how it's different from a 'bindi' or the (seemingly) countless other names by which it is known. Larki terminology always confuses me. I once heard of a form of embroidery known as 'chicken'!

Although I have studied Hinduism with competent Muslim and Hindu scholars in the field, this issue was never raised in our discussions. I may be wrong about this, but as far as I am aware, the dot (similar to the one worn by unmarried females) on the forehead has no religious significance, and is a customary practice. For an official fatwa, I think you should get in touch with a scholar.

Asalamu Alaikum,

lol @ Chicken. Theres another material that is called "Lawn",

I thought in Hinduism different Bindhis represent different status (wed, unwed, widow etc.) and also represented their belief in the Third Eye etc? Perhaps, it has just become a fashion icon now, but I believe it is deeply based on a religious backround?

Fi AmanAllah

I heard that wearing silk is impermissible because it was too feminine or something.

What about silk armor that the Mongols used? That was pretty manly... and really useful.

Hah. I made a couple of lame jokes about chicken (chikan) suits in the pre-crash Islamica bridal thread. Nobody appreciated them.

It's origin is definitely from the Hindu religion & the wearing of it is definitely a Hindu custom, even if it has no religious significance as an object itself per se. I believe it's considered representative of a "third eye," though.

As for ties, I don't think there's anything wrong with wearing them personally. There are a lot of scholars who do, though.
