Question:
Q1-Is it permissible to wear clothes with Fila Logo because when read backwards it reads Alif?
Answer:
It cannot be said that it is not permissible to wear clothes marked with the FILA’ logo due to the mere fact that it reads as ALIF’ backwards if it does not denote anything that is against the Shari’ah.
