Summary
The body tea trend that displays women's bodies is contrary to Islamic teachings. It involves exposing the awrah to the public, invites fitnah (temptation and harm), opens the way to forbidden gazes and sexual harassment, and lowers the dignity of Muslim women. Islam commands lowering the gaze, covering the awrah and observing modest dress in order to close the door to fitnah. Muslim women are reminded that their true worth lies in faith, character and knowledge rather than appearance.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Trend body tea yang mempamerkan tubuh wanita jelas bertentangan dengan ajaran agama Islam kerana ia melibatkan pendedahan aurat kepada umum, mengundang fitnah, membuka ruang kepada pandangan haram, gangguan seksual serta merendahkan martabat wanita Islam.
