Using items manufactured by non-Muslilms

· 3 Jumada II 1441 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I want to ask many people ask why we using non-Muslims' inventions practically and socially if we are against them?

Answer

There is no prohibition in using things that are made and manufactured by them. What is prohibited is to have a deep inner love for them which results eventually in imitating them, their culture, their behaviour and their values.

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