The ruling on wearing shoes made from imported skins
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Thank you, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. What is the ruling on wearing shoes made from the skin of an animal whose meat is eaten, knowing that they are imported from abroad, and I do not know whether they were slaughtered according to the Shari'ah or not?
Answer:
There is a point of difficulty here, but as long as the skins are from animals on which zakah is due, the default is that they are permissible. So the default is that these shoes are permissible, unless it is established for you that they are from the skins of dead animals, in which case they become a point of difficulty.
