Question
Assalamualaikum. Can a boy like or say things that are associated with girls . Like liking the colour pink and dying you hair pink , if one just likes it because it's pretty .
Islamic Ruling & Answer
VerifiedWalekumussalam,
Liking the color pink is permissible in itself. However, since in common custom pink is more closely associated with women, liking it or especially using it in oneโs hair may fall under imitation of women. Therefore, it should be avoided, and exercising caution is better.
