Is Alta haram in Islam?

Published in Islamic Jurisprudence 1 min read

The provided information does not relate to the permissibility of "Alta" (likely referring to a cosmetic or henna used for adornment) in Islam. It discusses a Sunnah related to newborn babies. Therefore, based solely on the supplied text, I cannot determine if Alta is haram in Islam. More context is needed to answer accurately.

The reference describes:

  • Alta heel is a sunnah: This is incorrect and seems to be misinterpreting the text. The reference actually mentions a sunnah related to newborn babies.
  • Over 1400 years ago, when a child was born, the Prophet ﷺ made it his Sunnah to take a small part of a date and place it in his mouth.
  • He would then chew it until it was soft and then rub it onto the palate of the new born baby. This practice is the Sunnah being described.

Given the discrepancy between the initial statement and the actual content of the reference, the question of "Is Alta haram in Islam?" cannot be reliably answered using this source.
