Is it permissible to wear abayas that are slit from the front at the bottom if they do not describe or reveal anything due to a wide skirt underneath? Or is wearing unslit abayas obligatory? And is it permissible to wear colors that are not eye-catching, such as gray, navy, and beige? Or is wearing black obligatory?

There is no objection to wearing an open abaya from the front if it does not reveal any part of the body or adornment. The abaya must be covering all parts of the body, loose, and thick. As for the color of the abaya, the matter is broad, and it is permissible for a woman to wear any color of clothing, provided that it is not an adornment in itself, and that it is covering, not describing, not transparent, and not a cause of temptation.
