question| Is it permissible to have the verses of the Qur’an or the names of the Holy Infallibles printed on articles of clothing, which is an especially common practice with regard to black clothes, in view of the fact that people might touch them without having ritual purity? Can we wear such clothes?

answer| Printing the verses of the Qur’an and the names of the Holy Infallibles on articles of clothing as described in the question and wearing clothes on which such sacred words are printed are per se permissible, provided that the sacred words are not desecrated, exposed to canonic impurity, or touched without the necessary ritual purity.
