The Ruling on Naming a Shop Makkah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If I forget a part of the adhan, do I repeat the adhan or what? Is it permissible to name a shop Makkah and make cards with the shop's name on them, along with a picture of Makkah?
The Shaykh : What did he do?
The questioner : He has a shop that he named Makkah, and then he made cards with the shop's address so people can find the location of the shop. The card has the shop's name and a picture of Makkah on it as well, meaning the Ka'bah, I mean, sorry.
The Shaykh : It is an improper exploitation; it is not permissible.
