Leather garments that come from abroad
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fourth question of Fatwa No. ( 4091 )
Q4: What is your view—may Allah prolong your life in the service of the religion—regarding belts, shoes, and leather coats made in the West ? Is it permissible for us to wear them, or is it not permissible, given that we do not know the nature of their purity: are they from an animal slaughtered according to the law, or from a pig?
A4: The original ruling is purity and the permissibility of wearing them, until it is established that what necessitates the ruling of impurity and the prohibition of wearing them is present, such as it being from pigskin or from
an animal that was not slaughtered with a lawful slaughter and was not tanned. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
