Is there an authentic Hadith that permits wearing clothes that contain silk and are available in tailor shops?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
It is forbidden for a man to wear or use natural silk, except for what does not exceed four fingers in clothing, such as embroidery. It is also not permissible to mix natural silk with other materials in weaving. As for artificial silk, the prohibition does not apply to it. One must verify the type of silk by asking the seller or experts.
