The Ruling on Selling Sports Clothing

Question:
This questioner asks: Is it permissible to sell sports clothing in a Muslim country?

Answer:
If the clothing covers the 'awrah (the part of the body that must be covered) and does not involve imitating the disbelievers, there is nothing wrong with selling it. Sports are originally permissible for strengthening the body.
However, this is conditional on covering the 'awrah and not taking up too much time; it should have a set time that does not prevent one from seeking a livelihood or from worship.
There is nothing wrong with acquiring and selling the specific clothing for it, provided it is not clothing that does not cover the 'awrah, such as clothes where the thighs or part of the thighs are exposed. This is not permissible. If it is covering and does not involve imitating the disbelievers, and does not bear any of the symbols of the disbelievers, then there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
