Wearing a coloured burqah due to extreme heat
Question
Alhamdulillah, by the fazl of Allah I'm doing shar'ee pardah by covering my face,wearing gloves and socks, etc. But I live in a very hot and humid place.
My question is, can I use any other coloured cloth, I mean other than black, for my burka as the black colour absorbs heat and makes it tough to carry?
Answer
Yes, as long as it is unattractive.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
