Fatwa #418315 November 2001South Africa

Please ellaborate on whetheror not women are allowed to piersce their navel, or any other part. Only the ear was mentioned in previous questions

Answer

Piercing of the navel and other body parts is the fashion of the Kuffaar. It
is a trait of the most vile amongst them.

In the Qur'aan and Sunnah, we are prohibited from emulating the Kuffaar.
Hence, it is not permissible to pierce the navel.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
