Fatwa #151211 November 2000Pakistan

Iam an Indian. In India lot's of Muslim women wear mangalsutra after marriage which they tell as a sign of married women.If prohibited then how can a man find out weather the women is married or not?

Answer

We are unable to comment on the 'mangalsutra' as we don't have knowledge of it.

However, one way to find out whether the woman is married or not is to enquire from her male guardian, for example, father, brother, etc.
