What should be done with trust property consisting of tight, embellished girls' trousers, which were intended for refugees, and which one fears would lead to ostentation and corruption if distributed in Tunisia, given the impossibility of returning them to their owners or destroying them through methods that would not raise legal suspicions?
If the trousers will be used in a way forbidden by Sharia, then they must be returned to their owners so they can dispose of them in a lawful manner, or sent to a place where they will be used lawfully, or sold to someone who will use them in a permissible way and their price be given as charity to the poor. It is not permissible to destroy them.
