Females wearing black clothing in the month of Muharram
Q: I recently received the following message: Ihyaaud-Deen WhatsApp Broadcasts *Wearing black clothing in the month of Muharram*
Q: In South Africa, should one avoid wearing black clothing during Muharram as the Shias wear black clothing?
A: Yes, if wearing black clothing has some resemblance with the Shias then this should be avoided.
My question is, I wear niqaab, majority of my clothing is black, because I simply love wearing black. Whenever I go out of my house, I have gloves that are black, a jilbaab that is black as well as a niqaab that is black. Even in my house I wear black most of the time. Can I wear black clothing without the intention of following the shi'ahs?
