The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: My elder brother bought some clothes, but with forbidden money, and I sometimes wear them with him. What is the ruling on that?
The Shaykh:
What did he buy?
The questioner:
He bought some clothes with forbidden money, and I sometimes wear them with him.
The Shaykh:
If it is forbidden, do not wear it. If you know that it is forbidden, do not wear it, because this clothing is forbidden. I mean, its price is forbidden. It was mentioned in the hadith:Sahih Muslim 1015 So do not wear clothing that you know the price of is forbidden.

The Shaykh:
If it is forbidden, do not wear it. If you know that it is forbidden, do not wear it, because this clothing is forbidden. I mean, its price is forbidden. It was mentioned in the hadith:
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: O people, Allah is Good and He therefore, accepts only that which is good. And Allah commanded the believers as He commanded the Messengers by saying: "O Messengers, eat of the good things, and do good deeds; verily I am aware of what you do" (xxiii. 51). And He said: "O those who believe, eat of the good things that We gave you" (ii. 172). He then made a mention of a person who travels widely, his hair disheveled and covered with dust. He lifts his hand towards the sky (and thus makes the supplication): "O Lord, O Lord," whereas his diet is unlawful, his drink is unlawful, and his clothes are unlawful and his nourishment is unlawful. How can then his supplication be accepted?
الذي يمد يديه الى السماء يا رب يا رب مطعمه حرام ومشربه حرام وملبسه حرام. فانه يستجاب لذلك.
