Ruling on piercing a woman's nose so that she can wear jewellery there

Is it permissible to put a ring in a woman's nose?.

Praise be to Allaah.

The ruling on putting a ring in a woman’s nose is that it is permissible, because the nose is pierced for the purpose of adornment and not for the purpose of harming or changing the creation of Allaah.

And Allaah is the source of strength. They Allaah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and Companions. End quote.
