Putting star stickers on children's hands as a way of rewarding them
Question
Are you allowed to put star stickers on children's hands as a way of rewarding them?
Answer
This is not the Muslim way to put stickers on hands. If you wish to reward them, then give them a sweet or chocolate.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
