Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: We wear shoes imported from the lands of the disbelievers. If they are made from leather, we do not know whether the animal was slaughtered according to the Islamic method or not. What is the ruling on wearing such things?
Answer:
It is permissible, as long as you do not know that it is from carrion; if you know it is from carrion, do not use it. As for what you do not know about, the default is permissibility, so do not be overly strict with yourself. Yes.
