Asalam-o-Alikum!
i am Saba from Lahore.I am student of MBA.
mufti sab please mojhe mere dream k bare main bata dain .. ma ne dream main daikha k main deawoo(bus) main travel kar rahe hon achank bus pani main gir jate hai or main pani main doob rahe hon es k saat he mere ankh khol jate hai
please tell me some thing about my dream i really worried about it..
وعليكم السلام

Dear Sister in Islaam, I am not aware of your situation and hence cannot inform you of a specific interpretation but what the dream suggests it that you will commit lot of sins. Therefore, make sincere Taubah and stay away from everything that leads to sins.

Assalamualikum Mufti Sb., I want to know is it permissible in Islam, my friend appointed to his wife in the Purchasing Job. Actually he is working in Gulf and his wife also working in Gulf along with me. My friend salary is lesser while comparing his wife salary (she is getting more than double salary while comparing his husband salary).
In our company work assignment given to her Purchasing Building related materials. She was in the situation to talk every Ghair Maharam because she need to talk to vendor for enquiry sent, Price negotiate with vendor to place the order and apart from that she is talking with Site people with regarding material related clarification / issues.
The main issue is, my friend having only one month vacation period once in a Year, so he bring his wife from India to Gulf.
In Gulf House rent is also too high, so he is not earning enough salary to stay with his wife but his wife getting enough Home rent allowance also.
FYI, my friend financial condition is very good also.
1. So I want know is it permissible to my friend to send his wife to earn money in the above condition, because I am monitoring about her job on daily basis. I feel is it not permissible in Islam.
2. 2. Can I speck with my friend about her wife job, if yes, kindly suggest me how can I speck with him because I can’t speak directly with him as it was family related issues.
وعليكم السلام
باسمه تعالى
The job referred to in the above-mentioned question leads her to committing a series of major sins such as being unmindful of Shar’ee Hijaab, intermingling, looking, talking, shaking hands and sometimes being alone with opposite sex. “And stay in your houses, and do not bedizen yourself like the bedizenment of the times of ignorance, and perform the Salaah, and give Zakah and obey Allaah and His Messenger.” (Suratul Ahzaab 33: 33)
“And when you ask for anything you want, ask them from behind a screen, that is purer for your hearts and for their hearts.” (Ibid 53)
Imaam Bukhari and Muslim رحمها الله تعالىhave recorded that the Nabee of Allaahﷺ said, “No man should be alone with a woman without there being a Mahram present nor should a woman travel unless she is accompanied by a Mahram.” A man stood up and said: O Messenger of Allaah, I have enlisted for such and such a campaign and my wife has set out for Hajj. He said: “Go and do Hajj with your wife.” (Agreed upon)
Imaam Tirmiz رحمه الله تعالىhas recorded that the Nabee of Allaahﷺ said, “No man is alone with a woman but the Shaytaan is the third one.”
Therefore, she is not permitted to work in the referred place nor is it permissible for her husband to allow her to apply for a job in a mixed workplace. However, she may work in case of necessity in a place where she does not have mix or become alone with Ghair Mahram.
It is your religious responsibility to talk to your friend concerning this issue directly or via some mediator or else you will be sinful and taken to account on the Day of Qiyamah. Imaam Muslimرحمه الله تعالى have recorded that the Nabee of Allaahﷺ is reported to have said, “Whoever amongst you notices an evil, he must change it with his hand; if he is unable to do so, then with his tongue; and if he is unable to do so, then with his heart; and that is the weakest form of Faith”. (Muslim)

if we think that a particular person or a particular dress is lucky for a business , then is it JAAEZ or not and is it true or not . PLEASE guide me
Assalaamu alaykum
Rizq and sustainance is from ALLAH. No person can earn more than what is ordained for him. It is the imaan of the ahlus sunnah wal Jamaa’ah that rizq is part of our qadr and that lies only in the “hands” of Allah.In the Qur’aan ALLAH Subhananahu wa Ta’aala mentions-
“and in the skies lies your sustainance and whatever you are promised” Surah dhariyaat.
Therefore to believe that anything can cause an icrease in your rizq is wrong and harmful to your imaan.

ISLAM main music haraam hae to naat me music kyun hota hae. Jo naat parta hae usko chahiye keh naat ka adab kare or music na add kare. Ap PLEASE batae keh music haraam hae.
Assalamu alaykum
inshaALLAH men muic ki hurmat par khuh roshni daalonga lekin english men.
In the qur aanul hakeem in the sixth aayah of surh luqman there is clear proof of the hurmat of listening to music. the aayat is as follows:-
{ وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَشْتَرِي لَهْوَ ٱلْحَدِيثِ لِيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ وَيَتَّخِذَهَا هُزُواً أُوْلَـٰئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ }
And there are those who purchase trivial speech so that they may mislead mankind from the path of ALLAH and take it as a means offalse pleasure.For those there await a disgraceful punishment.”
Concerning the tafsir of thi aayat sayyiduna abdullah bin mas’ood radhiyallahu anhu mentioned it was revealed concerning music and muscal instruments.
(روى ابن جرير: حدثني يونس بن عبد الأعلى قال: أخبرنا ابن وهب، أخبرني يزيد بن يونس عن أبي صخر عن أبي معاوية البجلي عن سعيد بن جبير عن أبي الصهباء البكري: أنه سمع عبد الله بن مسعود وهو يسأل عن هذه الآية: { وَمِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مَن يَشْتَرِى لَهْوَ ٱلْحَدِيثِ لِيُضِلَّ عَن سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ } فقال عبد الله بن مسعود: الغناء والله الذي لا إله إلا هو يرددها ثلاث مرات. )
In another hadeeth it is mentioned that musica develops hypocracy in the heart like water causes grow to vegetation.
(وفي «السنن» عن ابن مسعود قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ” الغناء ينبت النفاق في القلب كما ينبت الماء البقل ” )
Therefore we could clearly say the singing of any nasheed with music in the background is forbiddenand we need to abstain from it

Some of the ghair muqalideen /salifis say that taqleed of one of the 4 imams is haram due to reasons . 1. We were not orderded to follow a specific mazhab . 2.The khulufah Arashadeen did not follow any mazhab . 3 .The imams of these mazahibs did not ordered us to follow them . 4 .The students of these mazhabs did not say to follow these imams . 5.Why should we close the door of ijtihaad when it should be remained open . 6. Why confined oneself to the 4 mazahibs when there are more authentic mazahibs like mazhab awza’ee and mazhab Laith bin sa’eed and others .Can u reply to these objections in details please jazak Allah khair .

Jaannworon ka ghar men paalna jaaiz he bashart e ke uske daheeh dekhbaal aur khana ka bandobast ho. Ahggar saheeh intizaam na ho tu waisahi paalna zhukm men shumaar hoga. Baukhaari men ko riwaayaat he jis men do auraten ki tzkirah he. Aik blliko paalti thi lekin us billi ko khana nahin khilaati thi and zhulm karti thi jaanwar par tu woh sabab banne us aurat ka jahannam mne daakhil hone ka. Baraks aik aur aurat thi jofaahisha thi lekin jab kissi kutte ko piyasa paaya tu woh kuwan se paani nikaalkar kutte ko pilaayi. Yeh amal baais bane us aurat ka jannat men dakhil hona. Barkat us waqt hogi jab janwar pi saheeh parwarish ho.

Is it not better to just leave Allahs attributes alone? Why even talk about them when the Prophet SAW didnt?
Wouldn’t it be consider a evil bidah to always discuss about Allahs attributes?
Wa Alaykumus Salaam
The aqeedah of ahlus Sunnah wal jamaa ah is to make tafweedh and accept ALLAH’S sifaat as is without any know how nor any tashbeeh(resemblance) to HIS creation.
Unfortunately certain sects take the meaning of the sifaat literally and therefore the need to clarify the issue.

As of now I’m feeling sad, and just down. Ramadhan is here and I dont feel any excitement for it. I’m just feeling very tired and bored. I wanted to get married but things aren’t really going too well for that either.
What should I do. I dont feel well.
Makt taubah and istighfaar. Thereafter start the tilaawat of the qur’aan aand insha ALLAH the barakah of the qur’aan will cheer you up.Also taubah and istighfaar draws the mercy of ALLAH.

Certain dreams are from wasaawis(whisperings of shaitaan). To save oneself from these dreams try and make wudhu andsleep with the recital of ayatul kursi and the three quls being read three times with bismillaah and blowing over your hand and rubbing over the whole body.

it is said that shayateen are chained in the month of ramzan…but i suffer from satanic evil attacks overpowering me even in this month compelling me to do wrong deeds and turning away from ibadat.if shaitan is chained in this month,then y am i suffering from the evil attacks of satan?

The greater enemy of mankind is his/her nafs(carnal desires). Rasulullaah salallaahu alayhi wa sallam mentioned,” the greastest enemy of oneself is that which he carries in his own bosom”. Therefore at times we have a recurring urge to sin. Waswaas happens a few times but the nafs always recurrs.

aslamo alykum,
main ramzan main boht ziada ibadat ker rhi hun.im offering all prayers,doing tilawat,reading tasbeeh,paying sadqa etc…but the problem is that im not doing it out of sheer love for ALLAH or as a token of little gratitude to ALLAH for all the bounties that HE has bestowed upon me.im doing it to please ALLAH in order to have some of my worldly wishes granted..i find myself more interested in having my worldly wishes granted than offering dua for maghfirat,rehmat,hidayat etc.undoubtledly im taking great pains in offering all ibadat,sacrificing my whole night sleep4prayers,but i feel guilt that im not offering ibadat for sake for ALLAH purely,in love for ALLAH purely,but i feel helpless coz i just dont find myself interested in asking for hidayat etc.am i being sinful in asking ALLAH to grant my wordly wishes rather than asking ALLAHA for maghfirat? feel that i would not be awarded much for my prayers and ibadat kyon k meri niat saaf nhi hai..plz guide me whether im being sinful or not

أيها الناس اسمعوا قولى فإنى لا أدرى لعلى لا ألقاكم بعد عامى هذا بهذا الموقف ابدا ، أيها الناس إن أموالكم و دمائكم عليكم حرام إلى إن تلقوا ربكم كحرمة يومكم هذا و حرمة شهركم هذا و ستلقون ربكم ؛ فيسألكم عن أعمالكم وقد بلّغت ؛ فمن كانت عنده أمانه فليؤدها إلى من أئتمنه عليها و إن كل ربا موضوع و لكم رءوس أموالكم لا تظلمون ولا تظلمون ، قضى الله أنه لا ربا وأن ربا العباس بن عبد المطلب موضوع كله و أن كل دم فى الجاهلية موضوع و أن أول دم أضع دم ابن ربيعه بن الحارث بن عبد المطلب ( و كان مسترضعا فى بنى ليث فقتله بنو هذيل ) فهو أول ما أبدأ من دماء الجاهلية .
أيها الناس : إن الشيطان قد يئس من أن يعبد بأرضكم هذه أبدا و لكنه رضى أن يطاع فيما سوى ذلك أمّا ما تحقرون من أعمالكم فاحذروه على دينكم .
أيها الناس :
” إنما النسئ زيادة فى الكفر يضل به الذين كفروا يحلونه عاما و يحرمونه عاما ليواطئوا عدة ما حرّم الله فيحلّوا ما حرّم الله ”
و إن الزمان قد استدار كهيئته يوم خلق الله السماوات و الأرض و إن عدة الشهور عند الله اثنا عشر شهرا فى كتاب الله يوم خلق السماوات و لأرض منها أربعة حُرُم ثلاثة متوالية و رجب الفرد بين جمادى و شعبان .
أما بعد : أيها الناس : فإن لكم على نسائكم حقا و لهن عليكم حقا لكم عليهن ألا يوطئن فرشكم أحدا تكرهونه و عليهن ألا يأتين بفاحشة مبينة فإن فعلن فإن الله قد أذن لكم أن تهجروهن فى المضاجع و تضربوهن ضربا غير مبرح فإن انتهين فلهن رزقهن و كسوتهن بالمعروف و استوصوا بالنساء خيرا فإنهن عندكم عوان لا يملكن لأنفسهن شيئا و أنكم إنما أخذتموهن أمانة الله و استحللتم فروجهن بكلمة الله .
فاعقلوا أيها الناس و اسمعوا قولى فإنى قد بلّغت و تركتم فيكم ما إن اعتصمتم به فلن تضلوا أبدا كتاب الله و سنّة نبيه .
أيها الناس اسمعوا قولى ، فإنى قد بلّغت و اعقلوا ، تعلمن أن كل مسلم أخو المسلم و أن المسلمين و أن المسلمين إخوة فلا يحل لامرئ من أخيه إلا ما أعطاه عن طيب نفس فلا تظلموا أنفسكم ، اللَّهُمَّ هل بلّغت ، قالوا : اللَّهُمَّ نعم ، قال : اللَّهُمَّ فاشهد .

asalamualaikum, i know that we are required to have sabr in difficult times, and i know troubles also come due to our sins. the thing is my whole life, i have been in a ghafil state, not a good muslim, so that period was spent in disobedience to Allah, but i have repented and come back to Him. Now, i’m just full of grief as i know i am in difficult times because of my sins. does this mean Allah doesn’t like me? i am trying to be firm on sabr, but it becomes unbearable, as i keep thinking of my sins, and think that if i hadn’t had sinned, maybe i wouldn’t be in this state. i feel like the biggest sinner, and my society where i live is looking down upon me, and now i feel that Allah maybe hates me too, I don’t want Him to despise me too. please help,i feel as if my iman is decreasing
The dificulties and hardships are there to bring a person closer to his Maker and attain his pleadure.What we should realize is that this world is a place of test, trials and tribulations. Do not expect to have a totally comfortable life with trials and tribulations. Rasulullaah salalaahu alayhi wa sallam fas mentioned,” the world is a prison to the believer, and paradise for a kaafir.” (tirmidhi) If we desire a life of paradise in this world then we desire a life of a disbeliever. In another hadeeth Rasulullaah saaws mentioned<' know well the commodity of ALLAH is extremely expensive. Know well that the commodity of ALLAH is jannah." To aatain Jannah requires great effort.Therefore Rasulullaah saaws mentioned " the ambiyaa are the most severe in receiving trials , then those closest to them." Do we wish closeness to ALLAH or not???

asalamu alaykam, I wanted to know if one is praying salah, and one of my parents calls me, am i allowed to break my salah to attend to their needs? are we only allowed to break our salah in the sunnah and nafl rakahs to attend to our parents? or are we also allowed to break the salah if its a fard? because my parents are old, and i am their main support right now, and they are usually calling me every so often to help them with something. if you could shed some light on this issue. jazakallahu khairun.
wA ALAYKUMUS sALAAM
If your parents call you for some necessity then you should break your salaah and answer them. What should be remembered if you break your salah you will have to reppeat it even if it be nafl.

asalamualaikum mufti saab, if i hurt someone feelings and knew myslf that it hurt them, and did it anyway, is that bad thing? should i be afraid that Allah is watching me while i am causing pain to other persons? i already am aware that another person feeling get hurt as they tell me before too that they dont like to be hurt but i still do anyway. i feel like i have no raham and just dont care. prophet Muhammad -saw was kind to everyone and cared about everyone feelings from orphan to women to children, to poor. and he tell us that muslims are like one body, and we should all care about each other, so am i lacking in this area? what i should do i feel so far away from his teachings?
wa alaykumus Salam
to belittle someone is a makor sin. Secondly it shows pride and arrogance on your behalf.

Salam Alaykoum
I would like to know if it is halal to practice martial arts who contain the following things.
1: The wearing of a belt to show you have aquired the skills. I heard that in japan they used to give the belt to people who advance in their art religiously and with skills. Whereas nowadays there are schools who give them only for the skills.
2: Doing a set of moves wich were taught to know how to fight but these sets had origins in shirk . There were for an example 27 moves in a set bcause this number is a divisor of 108 and the number 108 is important in buddhist religion. But there might be maslaha in the moves to know how to fight or to block. So would it be haram to practice the set with the intention to know how to fight and not by the intention of glorifiying their religion.
Wa alaykumus Salaam
The Issue relevant to all your questions is whether these objections are still practiced upon as it was done in the past. If they no more have linking with its old ways and merely are signs with no religious connotations to it, then it will be permissible as long as no shirki act is encouraged.Certain arts still demand the buddhist arts and mannerisms in them and such martial arts are forbidden.

I have a problem understanding the concept of making a vow to other than Allah.
I know that if someone goes to a grave and says: Oh sheikh heal me and I will give sadaqa to the poor, I know that such person is guilty of shirk al-duaa and shirk in vowing. What I don’t know is if he goes to the grave and says o sheikh ask Allah to heal me and if Allah answers me I will give sadaqa to the poor. I know this is a bidaa but I do not know if it is shirk. Could you also give examples of things wich are shirk in vowing so confusion will leave my mind.
ASSALAMUA ALAYKUM!!!!
Firstly understand the fact that to ask from ghairullaah for matters Related to ALLAH is shirk and not permissible.This is not permissible, even if it is asked of a Nabi alayhimus Salaam.In a Hadeeth Rasululllaah salallaahu alayhi wsallam has ordered us thus saying, “If you ask,ask of ALLAH and if you seek help, seek help from allah.”(bukhaari)
As for the second part of your question it requires a bit of explanation.
A) It is the belief of the AHLUS SUNNAH Wal jamaah that the Anbiyaa alayhimus Salaam are alive in the graves and they hear.(muslim, mustadrak , tirmidhi)Therefore to ask the anbiyaa a.s. to make du’aa to AL;LAH on your behalf is permissible and ibn Katheer rahimahullaah in his tafseer has narrated a story mention by the famous taabi’ee Utbi rahimahullaah of a Bedouin coming to the grave of Rasulullaah Salallaahu alayhi wasallam and requesting his intercession to ALLAH on his behalf for forgiveness which utbi r.a. mentions he saw in a dream that Rasulullaah saaws mention that the A’raabi was on haqq and forgiven. This is found under ayaah 84 of surah nisaa. Here is the extract from the Tafseer in Arabic.
وقد ذكر جماعة منهم الشيخ أبو نصر بن الصباغ في كتابه ” الشامل ” الحكاية المشهورة عن العتبي، قال: كنت جالساً عند قبر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فجاء أعرابي فقال: السلام عليك يا رسول الله، سمعت الله يقول: { وَلَوْ أَنَّهُمْ إِذ ظَّلَمُوۤاْ أَنفُسَهُمْ جَآءُوكَ فَٱسْتَغْفَرُواْ ٱللَّهَ وَٱسْتَغْفَرَ لَهُمُ ٱلرَّسُولُ لَوَجَدُواْ ٱللَّهَ تَوَّاباً رَّحِيماً } وقد جئتك مستغفراً لذنبي، مستشفعاً بك إلى ربي. ثم أنشأ يقول:
يا خَيْرَ مَنْ دُفِنَتْ بِالقاعِ أَعْظُمُهُ فَطابَ مِنْ طِيْبِهِنَّ القاعُ والأَكَمُ
نَفْسِي الفِداءُ لِقَبْرٍ أَنْتَ ساكِنُهُ فيهِ العَفافُ وفيهِ الجُودُ والكَرَمُ
ثم انصرف الأعرابي، فغلبتني عيني، فرأيت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم في النوم، فقال: يا عتبي الحق الأعرابي، فبشره أن الله قد غفر له».
To make a point clear that he categorizes the Hikaayah as being mash hoor and any individual who knows a bit of Usoolul Hadeeth will realize that a Mash hoor narration cannot be rejected.
B) As for sking others besides the Anbiyaa A.S. then there is a difference of opinion based on the fact of whether theInhabitants of the grave hear or not.Since there is the difference it will be better to abstain from it but it cannot be said to be bid’ah or wrong. However to ask Directly from ALLAH and make use of waseela of their good aamaal.

ASSALAMUA ALAYKUM,
Maybe my question lacked clarity. My question was not about going to a grave and asking a wali to make dua on our behalf. My question was about saying to them that if Allah answers the dua they are making for me, i will give sadaqa for the poor on their behalf. I wanted to know if that considered as nadhr to gayr Allah. I know some ulama permit asking them to make duaa on our behalf and I know that this is far from shirk. But i do not if you make a condition to do something for them after the duaa is answered if that is shirk and considered a nadhr. I also wanted to know the definition of making a nadhr to other than Allah. Sorry if you misunderstood me, I didn’t want to imply that tawassul or istishfa with the prophet is bidaa.
Wa alaykumus Salaam
What you trying to imply that you will make a sadaqah on their behalf for esaale thawaab? Nadhr is only made on the name of ALLAH.Slaughter will also be on the name of ALLAH. But reward and virtue can be given to the mayyiteen.

ALLAH TA AALAA ka irshaad he
[17:82]
اور ہم قرآن (کے ذریعے) سے وہ چیز نازل کرتے ہیں جو مومنوں کے لئے شفا اور رحمت ہے اور ظالموں کے حق میں تو اس سے نقصان ہی بڑھتا ہے
Qur;aan zariya e shifa he aur quraani aayaat prhna shigfa ki niyyat se jaiz he basharte ke woh jaaiz kam ke liye hota he.Wazaaif e quraani khud Huzur aqdas Salalaahu alayhi wasallam ne hamme sikhaaya he.Faqr aur faaqa ko door karne ke liye hamme surah waaqiah parhne ka hukm diya Aap kaise kehrahe he ke wazeefah jaaiz nahin.Hades shafir men hamme sikhaayaa ke gham ko door karne ke liye surah toubah ki aakhiri aayat 7 martabha parhna. Is se pata chalta he ke yeh taalim khud Huzur Sallllaahu alayhi wa sallam se saabit he.

I have a friend who subscribed to an atheist forum wich fights against islam and other religion in order to refute them. Among the 10 conditions they put, one is to reject all religion. My friend pushed the button I will follow the terms. I told him he should not have done that. He told me that it was halal since most of the conditions were halal by themselves and he pushed the button with the niyya that he will follow all the terms when they are halal. He told me that one can say something wich people will understand in a different way then we intend. Could you tell me what I should say to him.
Assalaamu Alaykum (islamic etiquette)
Agreeing to denial of religion or the existence of ALLAH knowingly is tantamount to kufr.If he claims he agreed to the terms by meaning only those that are halaal then he will still be in islam but he will require to repent for giving the wrong impression of having denied religion.He should repent to ALLAH for it. If he wrongly thought it permissible to deny the existence of ALLAH or deny religion then he should repent from this erroneous thought.

asalam alikum mufti sahab.
I came to know that the Islamic ruling for any non-muslim state (country e.g.) is that the muslim state give them dawaah and offer them to become muslim, and if the ruler of the non-muslim state refused then the Muslims should ask them to leave the rulership and if they refused this also then the Muslims should ask them to fight (Jihaad)
Is it true that we muslims should believe that only we have the right of rule. Any non-muslim ruling his country should become muslim or he should leave his position or else he should face us in fight?
Is this really a correct way of Shariaah?????
Please answer ASAP.
Thank You & Jazak Allah khair
Wa alaykumus Salaam
What you have mentioned is based on those Non Muslim states thaat show animosity to the Muslim State.If any Non Muslim state is willing to sign a pact with the Muslims they will be left and treated as a friendly State. On the occasion of Hijrah, Rasululaah salallaahu alayhi wasallam had made a pact with the yahud od Medina and kept it up till they broke it.

Asalamu Alaykum.
In a question I had asked, you told me that if a clothing had lost religious meaning it would be halal to wear it. Is it only when the particular clothe loses religious meaning or when most people wear it without a religious meaning. If some people still wear it religiously would be haram to wear it. If for example a clothing is prescribed in the religious scriptures of hindus, jews or christian and it is so widespread that it doensnt distinguish them from others anymore. would these clothes be halal to wear
Wa alaykumus salam
When any object or item has a religious connotation to it, then its usage will not be permissible if it is recognised as a trait orsign that belongs to the religion other than islam. For example many people wear crosses or the star of David penents but normally these are clearly associate with Judaism and Christianity. People who see these think the individual to be belonging to that religion. Therefore such things are forbidden. I would like to know, why would we want to wear something that belongs to another religion?

Asalamu Alaykum.
Of course no sane person would want to wear religious signs of other religions as this is kufr according to the jumhoor. It’s just that I have read in Al-Mawsuat Al-Fiqhiya that when something is not a sign distintive of the kuffar anymore it is halal to wear it. They brought a saying from Imam Malek that wearing burnous was halal even though it was what the priest were wearing, because it was widespread among muslims too. I wanted to know if for instance and it will probably never happen ,the star of David, or the majus hat would become so widespread in the world that it wouldn’t be a sign only of the jews anymore if it would still be haram to wear it. Would it be the same hukm as when our ulema gave the hukm of tahrim of wearing the western dress during colonial periode because it was tashbih, but during our century they said it was halal because it was widespread among muslims too. Could you tell me if there would be ijmaa prohibiting it or not. I want the answer because I don’t want to die with a wrong belief.
Wa alaykumus Slam
Remember if any “shi’aar” of the non believers looses its status as being a specific trait of that religion and is commonly used without it being recognized as a “shi’aar(salient trait) of that religion, then it will be permissible to wear it but with karaahaa. If it is worn by others but still recognised as a trait of a certain religion then wearing it will be tash shabuh which will be classified haraam.
In My humble opinion the mimicking of the fashion of the kuffar also falls into the category of Tash shabuh. Mimicking the dress of popstars is open fisq and therefore forbidden.
