What is the ruling on using carpets made of silk or containing silk fabrics at home?

All perfect praise be to Allaah, the Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, is His slave and Messenger.

It is impermissible to lay carpets that are fully made of silk or of which silk comprises more than half of their fabric. This is forbidden in houses or elsewhere if they are to be used by men. This prohibition is based on the general indication of the Hadeeth in which the Prophet, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: "Silk and gold have been made unlawful for the males of my community and lawful for the females." [Ahmad, At-Tirmithi, An-Nasaa’i, Abu Daawood and Ibn Maajah]

Allaah Knows best.
