Peachwool, Nida and Bon Bon are some of the suggested materials to use for a ladies ihraam.
Here are some pros and cons of using either colour.
Black
Pros
- No need to wear double layer as it is not see through
- Dust etc wont be easily visible
Cons
- might attract more heat
White
Pros
- Looks beautiful seeing a see of white
- Reminds one about wearing a white kafan after passing away
Cons
- Dirt etc can be easily visible (note for ladies who get their menses to avoid wearing white)
- A double layer of clothing may need to be worn as material might be see through
Its a personal preference which colour to wear.
In the end, we make duaa to Allah that our hearts become white and pure after performing Hajj – Aameen
