Milad Clothes and makeup ?

**First of all Eid-Milad-Un-Nabi Mubarak ho :slight_smile:

So I have few questions…

What kind of clothes(salwar kameez) do women wear in a milad and what kind of colors ?

I mean formal (heavy work) or casual clothes ? White or colored clothes ?

And do they wear makeup ? If yes, light or heavy…?

Thanks in advance +++

**Oww thanks :)

But do women wear heavy kaam wali salwar kameez ?

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

To be honest I think heavy kaam wqale kapre look OTT. Wear something nice and simple, it's not a wedding remember :p There's nothing wrong in wearing makeup, it makes us look butiphool :@:

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

a heavy kaam walay clothes will look out of place. White cretes perfect ambiance:blush:

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

**Loooool thanks I was asking coz i dont wanna look OTT :)

And do they apply mehndi or not ?

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

i wore a yellow suit with new bangles

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

a nice white dress/shalwar kameez.

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

just wear something that makes you look fresh.
jewellery and mehndi are great.......some people treat it just like Eid.

in our family we are discouraged from making a big deal out of this day because there is no history of our beloved prophet s.a.w. giving significance to birthdays etc. so we don't but I have been to milaads and celebrations and it is just like Eid.

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

Treat it like you would a katham. Subtle clothes and makeup.

Agree, best to keep it simple..

A nice pastel outfit, with little makeup and a very natural looking YOU!

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

I agree with most.. I like it to be light and natural.

:k:

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

nowhere in the history was ever prophet Mohammed's (SAW) birthday celebrated.....have we ever read of sahabas(RA) celebrating our beloved prophet's (SAW) birthday?we have become used to glamorizing everything....infact so many religious scholars condemn celebrating birthdays as it is a celebration started by kaafirs and remember that on the day of qayamah we would be raised along with those who we have imitated.

jeebus.

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

I'm no scholar here and I apologize if I step on any toes, but there are only 2 Eids in Islam, Eid ul Fitr and Eid ul Adha (BakraEid). Also, the exact day of the Prophet's (saw) birthday is unknown. We are encouraged to recite durood throughout the year and much of what is practiced during milads is considered biddah by Hanafi scholars. The Prophet discouraged celebrating birthdays and even his.

Having said that, if there are gatherings during this month, just be well dressed as always but not like the 2 Eids where we go all out to make new clothes etc.

Re: Milad Clothes and makeup ?

**Thanks a LOOOOT !!! I wore a light pink salwar kameez with some chooriyan.

We recited naats, had a quran-khani and a khatam.

Thanks again :)))
