Reference number: 624396 | Clothing and Accessories Legislations | Dec. 4, 2019

Can a woman wear a ring on her index finger?

Answer

Praise Be to Allah and Peace Be Upon His Messenger.

Islamic Shari’a does not determine the fingers on which a woman can wear their rings. However, it does determine on which fingers men can wear their rings. The prophet (PBUH) prevented men from wearing rings on their index or middle fingers. Therefore, a woman is allowed to wear her ring on any finger as long as there is no evidence which says the opposite.
