Q 34: There is a custom in American universities
that students wear a graduation robe on their graduation day, which is similar to the Arabian gown,
and a cap. It is said that such clothes were used by monks in the past. Based on this, is it permissible for a Muslim student to wear this robe in the graduation ceremony?
A:
It is not permissible for a student to wear this robe, if it is one of the clothes related to non-Muslims. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said,
Anyone who imitates a group of people is one of them.
The prohibition is confirmed if it is proven that such clothes were used by monks.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
