The Ruling on Wearing a Suit and Sunglasses
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) swore that if he were alive, he would wear the clothing of the disbelievers, the suit and the trousers. What is the ruling on this man who says this?
The Shaykh : He is ignorant, or an open sinner, or a disbeliever.
The questioner : The sixth question: What is the ruling on wearing sunglasses?
The Shaykh : Actions are judged by intentions. If he intends to use them to ward off the heat and glare of the sun, it is permissible. But if he intends to use them to catch the eye of beautiful girls, it is forbidden.
The questioner : Excellent. I understood.
The Shaykh : Did you not understand?
The questioner : Before.
The Shaykh : I am saying the one who wears the sunglasses.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : His action is judged by his intention. If his intention is to protect his eyes from the glare of the sun, it is permissible. But if he intends to catch the eye of beautiful girls and to satisfy his animal lust by directing the arrows of his gaze at those beautiful girls, it is forbidden.
