Question

Is it permissible for a Muslim to sell clothing made from pig skin e.g. gloves, shoes, etc.? Will there be any difference in the ruling if these items are used as safety equipment/wear?

Answer

No.

Abstain from using these things that are made from pig skin.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
