The answer

Summary of the :

The ruling on selling alluring clothing to women was previously addressed in a former fatwa. As for trousers for men, it is permissible to sell them unless they are transparent, or tight and define the 'awrah, and are no longer a characteristic exclusive to disbelievers. It is forbidden to sell clothes that contain images of animate beings. As for a symbol that reflects the word "god" inverted, a Muslim should not fall prey to superstitions and forbid what is permissible based on them. However, if something is found that contains an insult to the Divine Being, it is not permissible to sell it, and being pleased with it is disbelief.
