A Muslim wearing black clothes below waist

Question

should we (Muslims) wear Black Clothes below Waist.

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

A Muslim, whether a man or a woman, is not obliged to wear a particular kind or colour of clothes. If the clothes of a man and of a woman meet the religious conditions, like not imitating the non-Muslims in the clothes that are peculiar to them, men not imitating women and vice-versa, not being clothes of fame and so forth, then it is permissible to wear it otherwise no.

For more benefit on the Islamic dress code for men, please refer to Fataawa 92650 and 88123, and for more benefit on the Islamic dress code for women, please refer to Fatwa 83702.

Allaah Knows best.
