The Criterion for the Garment of Distinction
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We conclude with this question. May Allah reward you. He says: What is meant by the garments of distinction, and what is the criterion for the garment of distinction by which it can be identified and known so that it can be avoided?
Answer:
The garment of distinction is that which contradicts what the community is upon. If the community is upon a permissible matter in clothing, wearing permissible clothes in accordance with the Sunnah, then you do not depart from them by wearing a garment that differs from their garment, because this would be a distinction among them, and it would be spread among them, and questioning or suspicion would arise regarding you and why you do such a thing. Yes, so the garment of distinction is that which contradicts the lawful garment upon which the community is. Yes.
