Ruling on those who believes that wearing black clothes will be in Hellfire forever


Question:

Some people claim that if a man makes his wife wear the Hijab (veil) and stay at home, or wear black clothes, her Salah (Prayer) will be invalid; and he will be in Hellfire forever. The believing women who guard their private parts but wear black; however, modest it is, will also be in Hellfire forever.

Answer:

This claim is speaking in the Name of Allah (Exalted be He) without knowledge and ruling according to one’s own desires, whereas Allah (Exalted be He) says, “And follow not (O man i.e., say not, or do not or witness not) that of which you have no knowledge.” [al-Isra: 36]

May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet, his family and Companions
