A Molvi says that now that the Nike logo is no longer associated with the Greek goddess, it is permissible to wear garments bearing this logo.

Question

A Molvi says that now that the Nike logo is no longer associated with the Greek goddess, it is permissible to wear garments bearing this logo. Is he right?

Answer

The molvi speaks trash. Irrespective of whether the Nike logo is the name of a goddess of the kuffaar or not, it is not permissible to wear garments or shoes with this logo or any other logo. It is Tashabbuh bil kuffaar. The one who has answered the question is dim-witted. It is Makrooh Tahrimi to a greater degree to perform Salaat with such kuffaar clothes.
