| Question: Nike and kufr | |
| Salaam
Is there any consensus that wearing nike is kufr considering the following: a) the name is based of a false goddess b) it is believed that the swoosh is based off the wing of the false goddess c) in recent years nike produced a product that read "goddess of victory", I say this because some say the connotations of kufr have disappeared. I ask because although it is easy for me to avoid wearing, i sometimes am asked to handle or pass on clothes that bear this name and/or logo to siblings or family. Please distinguish between it being an act of kufr, and it being something impermissible but not kufr |
