Treating the West: Ruling on Wearing Clothes with Foreign Images and Inscriptions

English:

Question #1364:

Is it permissible to wear clothes which bear foreign pictures and inscriptions? And is it considered a means of spreading Western culture?

Answer #1364:

There is no objection to it in itself unless it leads to social decay. As for judging it as a way of spreading Western culture, which is diametrically opposed to the Islamic one, it should be left to the common sense.
