Summary
The author found no evidence from the Qur'an or hadith that a door curtain attracts sustenance or prevents evil trials. Using a curtain at the door is not a problem and is even encouraged so that people outside cannot see inside the house. Any religious practice must rest on evidence, as the hadith of Aisyah rejects whatever is newly invented in the religion.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kesimpulannya, menggunakan tabir atau langsir di pintu tidaklah menjadi masalah bahkan ia adalah digalakkan dengan tujuan agar orang di luar tidak boleh melihat apa yang ada di dalam rumah.
