Question
Asalam Alaykum how are you ? Is it haram or makrooh at all for one’s wife to please her husband by adorning and enhancing her size of hips through exercising , and enlarging her breasts and nipples without surgery through breast pumps and taking estrogen increasing supplements like fenugreek and growth hormone increasing supplement amino acids which all are halal and safe completely ? Would any of such cause the risk of other men to stare at her in public ?

We have received your query regarding a wife adorning herself for her husband, our response is as follows:
Shariah encourages a women to adorn herself for her husband. However, this must be done in moderation.
Therefore in the queried scenario we advise that one should abstain from going to such extremes such as using Estrogen etc in order to enhance one’s bodily features.
We should also bear in mind that shame and modesty are extremely emphasized in Shari’ah. It is one of the core values and standards of Islam. Shame and modesty should be expressed through one’s attire and conduct. As Muslims, we should distinguish ourselves from any alien way as far as possible way. We live in an era wherein immodesty has engulfed us from all sides, however if we turn to Allah Ta’ala and guard our gaze then this will solve our issues.
