Denim Jilbabs? 

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani

I would like to know if I am allowed to wear a jilbab made of jeans fabric, or if it would be “imitating the unbelievers” somehow, and so prohibited or disliked.

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,

Unless you intend to be like disbelievers, it would not be disliked to wear denim clothing (such as a jilbab for women, or loose jeans), if it fulfills the conditions and proprieties of modest Muslim clothing.

And Allah alone gives success.

Wassalam,
Faraz Rabbani
