QUESTION:
As Salaamu Alaikum,
Can you rent decorations etc for weddings and parties
ANSWER:
Wa Alaikum As Salaam,
With respect to renting decorations etc for weddings and parties, this will be permissible as long as the items rented are not unlawful in Islam. Therefore, items like decorated chairs, lights, colorful cloth, papers etc will be permissible to rent for such occasions. Items that have animate images or pictures on them, or decorations that have emblems that represent other religious beliefs or traditions, will not be permissible to rent.
