Fabric art and Arabic

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

I would like to make gift cards and wall hangings out of fabric, (like patchwork with details). If it isn’t generally permissible, would it become so if there is arabic detail as a reminder, for instance ‘Allah’, as opposed to just making a hanging for a child’s room to brighten it up with boats and so on?

Answer:

In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

There is nothing wrong with gift cards or wall hangings that contain the Divine Name or verses from the Qur’an.

Jazakum Allah khayr.
And Allah alone gives success.
