Extravagance in furniture

Q 2: Is it Haram (prohibited) to buy average modern furniture? It is important to know the answer, as I will be married to a Muslim who wants to furnish the house with what was used during the days of the Messenger (peace be upon him) and we hold different views in this regard.


A: It is not Haram to buy average furniture and moderation is the best way. Allah says, And those who, when they spend, are neither extravagant nor niggardly, but hold a medium (way) between those (extremes). (Part No. 24; Page No. 100) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
