The Islamic law does not limit its followers, in wearing a specific colour. Islam respects the preferences and temperaments of humans. Hence, Islamic jurists (fuqahaa) state “There is no objection in any colour of clothing” (Al Dur Al Mukhtaar).
The Prophet Mohammed’s (pbuh) Preference (White & Black)
It is known from narrations that white was liked by the Messenger of Allah (pbuh).
Ibn Abbas (r) narrates the Prophet (pbuh) said, “Wear white clothing and shroud your deceased in it” (Tirmidhi & Abu Dawood). The very same point is also narrated by Hasan Ibn Ali (r) (See Majma Al Zawaaid & Al Bazzaar).

Violations of traffic rules and speed limits cause an increase in accidents. Almost everyday newspapers cover a road accident. Let us see what precepts the Holy Quran and hadith dictate in this regard.
