Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He says: What is the ruling on one who sells tobacco,
The Shaykh : Sells what?
The questioner : Tobacco and clothing that contains images,
The Shaykh : What?
The questioner : And clothing that contains images? Is this sale permissible? And is the profit he obtains lawful or forbidden?
The Shaykh : It is not permissible for a person to sell tobacco, because tobacco is forbidden, and when Allah forbids something, its price is forbidden. Also, selling it falls under the category of cooperating in sin and aggression. Likewise, clothing that contains complete images is not permissible to sell, because selling it leads to wearing it, and wearing it is forbidden. However, if it contains only faces, it is not forbidden. Similarly, diapers that are tied around the front or back of a boy are not a problem to sell or buy, even if they contain images, because they are extremely degraded, as they are discarded in the place of harm and filth.
Yes.
