Wearing synthetic silk by a man

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner asks: What is called synthetic silk—is it permissible for a Muslim man to wear it?

Answer:
I do not know this synthetic one. It is industrial knowledge. If it is like the original silk in its softness, it is not permissible; it takes on its ruling.
