Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, is it permissible to wear the caps that boys put on their heads, knowing that some of these caps have words of disbelief written on them? Is it permissible to buy and wear them?
Answer:
It is not permissible to imitate the disbelievers in their clothing, whether caps or otherwise. A Muslim wears what Muslims in his country wear; he wears what the Muslims in his country wear, and he does not imitate the disbelievers in their clothing, neither in caps nor in anything else. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Whoever imitates a people is one of them.” Yes.
