Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on buying from grocery stores that sell cigarettes or women’s magazines?
Answer:
Buying permissible items is fine, but with disapproval, with disapproval of the evil. As for you buying something permissible from them, that is fine, provided you do not remain silent about his action. You should advise him; if he refuses, then you should report his matter to the people of hisbah (market inspectors) so that they may address the situation. If you remain silent, that is condoning it. Yes.
