What is the ruling on giving as charity to the poor and needy tight trousers, pajama bottoms designated for sleep, and women's jeans?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
If it is highly probable that the recipients of the charity will use the clothes in a forbidden manner, then it is not permissible to give them as charity. This is because it involves cooperating in forbidden acts and spreading mischief. A woman wearing trousers outside the home, even if they are wide, is a forbidden act if there is nothing above them to cover them.
