Using stationary items of a certain design with the intention of showing off
Question
Stationary items (e.g. pens and others ) with floral and geometric designs etc., are these permissible for women to use outside of the home?
What if the designs aren't quite visible/noticeable from a distance?
Answer
If it is going to be attracting impermissible attention or if it is done just for show or to impress people then it is not right.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
