Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reader: "And the jurists among the followers of Imam Ahmad and others, among them: Qadi Abu Ya'la, Ibn Aqil, Shaykh Abu Muhammad 'Abd al-Qadir al-Jili, and others" according to me.
The Shaykh : Do you have a discrepancy, al-Jilani?
The reader: No, al-Jili.
The Shaykh : It is possibly al-Jabli.
The reader: There is a biography of him which says: 'Abd al-Qadir ibn Abi Salih ibn 'Abd Allah al-Jili, then al-Baghdadi.
The Shaykh : Al-Jilani is well known.
The reader: "And others regarding the types and categories of clothing: And among the disliked clothing is that which differs from the attire of the Arabs and resembles the attire and customs of the non-Arabs. And the wording of 'Abd al-Qadir is: 'And it is disliked to wear anything that differs from the attire of the Arabs and resembles the attire of the non-Arabs'".
The Shaykh : For example, if this clothing that was originally from the non-Arabs and the disbelievers became widespread among the Muslims, do we say that the dislike remains, or do we say that the attire has now become a shared attire? The latter, and this is what Imam Malik and others stated. And that includes the pants now; the pants in many Islamic countries are not used except in this way, so we do not say that it is the attire of the Zoroastrians or the polytheists or the non-Arabs now, because it has become, yes, shared. But, yes, if a person wears it in a country where it is not customary, it falls into another type of disliked clothing, which is showing off, so he is forbidden from it for this reason. Yes.
