are men allowed to get their ears peirced?
is it true that if a new born baby is dying then do you have to get the ears pierced



Bismillah

Al-jawab billahi at-taufeeq (the answer with Allah's guidance)


1) It is Haraam (forbidden) for males to pierce any part of their bodies.

2) No, it is Haraam and not true. Many cultural customs consist of doubtful and unauthenticated information. Ignore such things for they are baseless and irreligious in nature.


And Only Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.

Mufti
