Muhammad in field outwardly in our field theory in our field mela in LA Oh god. My dear respected
brothers and sisters in Islam, we will come your one setting to Colorado Muslims. Council? Yes, I do
NACA they ask you.
		

			We received a question from Sister jameelah. She is our local here in Colorado. She's asking
regarding contact lenses, lenses, sorry, Lynn says
		

			last Saturday last year,
		

			the prescribed contact lenses
		

			the colored one, what is the ruling regarding it?
		

			In general brothers and sisters in Islam,
		

			if the contact lenses are used for medical reasons,
		

			there is nothing wrong with that, if it is to help the individual to see better. Certainly there is
nothing wrong with that at all. And it is permissible
		

			in this way. But if you are to use colored contact lenses, which is different to the colors of the
eyes,
		

			beautifying yourself
		

			for your husband applies, that something could be used.
		

			You know, as long as you're not deceiving someone else, as long as deceiving someone, someone else
in the sense of let's say that someone is coming to propose to you.
		

			And, you know, you wear these contact lenses, lenses in order to simply you know, deceive him about
how you look.
		

			This is not permissible. Of course, also, it shouldn't be, you know, something that you
		

			harm yourself because of it. Like for example, you know, you waiting it to make yourself beautiful,
but yet, this is harmful to your own eyes, you shouldn't do that. And you shouldn't be extravagant
in the sense of you go and buy waste your money on such things in order. You know, we know that
we're going to be asked how did we earn the money and how did we spend it as well. But in general,
my direct ID system in Islam, this is permissible provided that these conditions are met. And also
in a way you're not making yourself a fitna you know, some sisters may go just to buy these contact
lenses which make their eyes inviting, you know, because in general, a sister is asked to lower her
		

			gaze.
		

			We shouldn't be creating an environment where people are looking at you because of the display that
you're having. through your eyes. We ask Allah Subhana Allah to protect our sisters in Islam and
protect the Chesterfield.
