Answered by Shaykh Abdurrahman ibn Yusuf Mangera

What is the hanafi opinion on piercing other than the earlobes?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalamu alaykum

In the name of Allah, the Inspirer of truth

It is not permissible to pierce any part of the body other than the ears and the nose for women.

Piercing is considered mutilation [muthla] of the body which is unlawful in Islam.

Hence, it would not be permissible to pierce the lip, belly button etc, since that is not considered the adornment for any decent women. [Radd al-Muhtar 5:270]

Wassalam
Abdurrahman ibn Yusuf
