What is the ruling on selling colored shoes, and are there colors whose sale is prohibited in shoes?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The original ruling is that it is permissible to sell and manufacture shoes of all colors and types, unless there is a color or type specifically associated with disbelievers and transgressors. In that case, it is forbidden to sell them such items, as it constitutes cooperation in sin and aggression.
