The ruling on men wearing red
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says: Is red clothing forbidden for men?
Answer:
Pure red, pure red. As for red that is not pure, there is nothing wrong with it, such as the shemagh, such as red that is not pure, the kind with white stripes, yes, like the striped garment that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wore. "Sira" means it has white stripes, and it is red. Pure red is not permissible for a man, but red that is not pure is fine, yes.
