Is It Permissible for Men to Wear Embroidered Clothing in Islam?

Understanding the Ruling on Men’s Embroidered Clothing and Its Implications

Question: Is it permissible for a man to wear clothes that have embroidery or designs, such as collars and under buttons with intricate patterns?

Answer: It appears that there is no clear prohibition against men wearing such clothing. However, from certain perspectives, it seems better to avoid such attire. This is because wearing such clothing, especially with patterns, might attract the attention of others, particularly during prayer, where it could be a distraction either for the wearer or those praying around them.
