I saw a bearded brother with a Playboy logo.

Question

I saw a bearded brother with a Playboy logo. He also has the word Playboy on his Citroen car. Please comment on this logo in the light of the Shariah.

Answer

His emulation of the kuffaar betrays his slave mentality and his inferiority. All those who adopt kuffaar customs and attitudes act and think like kuffaar. Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: "Whoever imitates a people is of them." The

Qur'aan prohibits inclining towards the kufaar in any way whatsoever. Just imagine how ugly it is for a Muslim adult male with a beard sporting a stupid haraam kaafir logo with connotations of fisq and fujoor (immorality). Salaat performed with clothing bearing such logos, has to be repeated whilst dressed decently.
