How to Deal with Clothing That Has Images on It
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Our sister asks and says: I have a blouse that I bought before I knew that images are forbidden, and it has an image on it. I want to destroy it, but it is expensive. What should I do?
Answer:
It is possible to remove the head of the image with some dye or sewing, until the head is gone. If the head is removed by any means of sewing, patching, or dyeing, there is no blame on keeping the rest of the body. Yes.
The presenter: I mean, if we sew an image of a tree or something similar over the head of the image, is that sufficient?
The Shaykh: That is sufficient. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
