Giving Measurements To Male Tailors For Stitching Clothes 'Haram' For Muslim Women: Deobandi Cleric Kasmi

Mufti Asad Kasmi, a Deobandi cleric, issued a Taliban-style decree explaining how Muslim women should get their clothes stitched, Live Hindustan reported.

He claimed that where men take measurements, it is haram (forbidden) for Muslim women to get their clothes stitched. He suggested that instead, women should send their already stitched clothes to a male tailor for measurements, as it is permissible.

Earlier, in his statement, Mufti Asad Kasmi had advised Muslim women not to go to beauty parlours where men work. He declared it illegal and haram for Muslim women and asked them to go to beauty parlours where girls work.
