Is it permissible for a Muslim woman to wear a Shariah-compliant outfit consisting of a wide, thick, loose jilbab of a certain color, and a khimar of another color, so that it is two-toned and free of embellishments? What are the recommended colors for a Muslim woman? Is it true that the women of the Salaf sometimes wore the Shariah-compliant outfit in two colors and sometimes in one color?
The important thing regarding a Muslim woman's attire is that it provides covering. There is no evidence to specify that it must be black, or of a single color, or two colors, based on the Almighty's saying: "O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves [part] of their outer garments."
