Silk Clothing: Between the Forbidden and the Permissible

Summary/Abstract: The Almighty God has given many and great blessings to the sons of Adam, by including that of clothing. This, to protect them from heat and cold, as well as to be an ornament and a garment to cover their bodies, according to Allah’s saying in the Quran: ْ َ َ َُ ً َ ْ ِ ِ ُ ُ ْ ْ َ ʮ بني آدم قد أنزلْنا عليكم لباسا يـواري سواطكم ِ ِ ً وريشا َََ َ َ َ ْ َ َ ِ َ “O sons of Adam, We created for you garment that covers your modesty and a garment ornamental”. Therefore, man should preserve the prosperity that God Almighty has given him, by respecting the rules that come from Allah’s law. Islamic legislation allows men and women to adorn themselves, especially with clothing, but at the same time it has also made some restrictions, including the prohibition of some types of clothing for both men and women, and specifically some more just for men, always as a sign of devotion to the Almighty God. He allowed some things and forbade some others, not to limit the people, but to keep them within limits and order in the universe. This, because God Almighty is Wise in His commands and prohibitions. He does not command except what is in the interest of man, and He does not forbid except that which is harmful to them. The wisdom of these ordinances and prohibitions can be shown to His creatures or it may not appear to them. Therefore, the issue of clothing in Islam, meaning here that of women and men, is important in the legislation of Islam. Jurists have paid special attention to it by defining whole chapters for it it's rules. In the following, we will focus on clarifying the provision of mean wearing silk.
