The answer

It is not permissible for a pilgrim in a state of to wear sewn garments or anything that resembles them. It is also not permissible for a pilgrim in a state of ihram to make the izar (lower garment), rida' (upper garment), or similar items into an izar or a loop, or to fasten them with a thorn, needle, or thread. Whoever does so without need has sinned and must offer a (expiatory offering). As for the buttons (or snap fasteners), it is not permissible for a pilgrim in a state of ihram to use them except when there is a need to secure and tighten the ihram garments, and their use should be limited to the extent of that need.
