Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: Many of the clothes available in the market contain pictures, and they are short. I am forced to buy them for my daughters. Is there any blame on me for that?
The Shaykh:
Yes.
The questioner:
She says: Many of the clothes available in the market contain pictures, and they are short. I am forced to buy them for my daughters. Is there any blame on me for that?
The Shaykh:
Yes, this is not permissible because it contains two wrongs. The first wrong is the pictures it carries; it is not permissible to use or carry pictures of beings with souls. The second matter is that they are short and do not cover. The requirement in clothing is covering. This is especially so for women. You can buy the fabric and have it sewn. The Sharia'ah perspective is that it is sewn for you, or you sew it yourself, according to what the Sharia'ah requires. There is no necessity to buy these clothes. Yes.
