Is it permissible? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A. <\/strong>As a general rule, if a piece of clothing can be worn in a permissible and non-permissible manner, it is permissible to sell such clothing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, it is permissible for a woman to wear a short skirt, a sleeveless shirt or a bikini in the privacy of her bedroom\/home for her husband. However, it is not permissible for her to wear them in public or in front of strangers (non-Mahrams). Ultimately, the manner in which the clothing is worn is solely the responsibility of a woman\/individual wearing the clothing and not on the seller selling the clothing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, it is permissible to sell clothing that can be used for permissible or impermissible purposes. However, it is best to avoid selling such clothing. <strong>(Fiqhi Maqalaat 3\/100 &#8211; Kitaab-ul-Fataawa 5\/271 &#8211; Fataawa Mahmoodiyyah 16\/138)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Allah Ta\u2019ala Knows Best<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Mufti Ismaeel Bassa<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>themufti.com<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can one sell un-Islamic clothing in a clothing store?&nbsp; Q.
