     In the name of Allah The Merciful The Compassionate

Colors.

Al Salam Alaikum Wa Rahmatu Allahi Wa BarakatuHu
May peace be upon you and Allah's Mercy and His Blessings.

     
     Allah has Created this universe with objects that
have colors. You may look at the leaves on trees, which is Allah's
creation, and see different colors. Some people may also have a
favourite color. The creatures and cattle that Allah has created,
Allah has made them with varying colors. The reason a particular object
has a certain color is because that is the way Allah has made it.
There is great wisdom in the way Allah has given certain objects certain
colors, indeed Allah is the Most Wise. In the variations in
our languages and our colors Allah has made signs (evidences)
for those who know.


White:  -Allah made this the color of the sky at dawn.
     -The faces of people that have the mercy of Allah
      will be lit with this color on the day of judgement.
     -Allah made one of the miracles for Moses (May Allah's peace
      be upon him) that his hand turn this color when he put
      his hand on his side.
     -When Jacob (May Allah's peace be upon him) grieved for his
      youngest son, Joseph (May Allah's peace be upon him), his
      eyes turned this color.
     -Allah has made mountains have various tracts of white.
     -This is the colour of some fountains that Allah has prepared
      for the believers in the Jannah.
     
Black:      -This is the color of the hell fire. The fire is so hot
      and has been burning so long that it has become this color.
     -Allah has made this the color of night.
     -The faces of people that have rejected Allah
      will be gloomy with this color on the day of judgement.

Green:      -Allah has made plants and crops that have life
      and are flourishing have this color.
     -In the dream the king of Egypt had, he saw seven
      green ears of corn.  
     -The people in Jannah will wear fine clothes of silk
      green in color.
     -People light fires from green trees.
     -Allah has made comfortable green cushions in the Jannah
      for its inhabitants to rest on.
     -This color was the name of the wiseman that Moses (May
      Allah's peace be upon him) went to seek knowlege from.  

Yellow:      -When crops begin to whither, Allah makes them turn this color.
     -The sparks of the hell fire are like yellow camels.

Red:      -Allah has made mountains have various tracts of red.
     -The colour of blood when it is outside the body Allah
      has made it this colour.

Blue:      -Allah has made this the color of water (oceans) and the
      sky.
     -The colour of blood when it is inside the body and without
      oxygen, Allah has made it this colour.

Orange: -Allah has made this the color of oranges. Prophet
      Muhammed (May Allah's peace and Blessings be upon him)
      has said a believer who recites the Quran is like an
      orange whose fragrance and taste is sweet.  

Rose:      -The color of the sky, when it is split apart on the day of
      judgement.

Purple:      -The prophet (May Allah's peace and blessings be upon him)
      did not ride on purple (saddles).

Gold:        -Allah made this the color of honey where there is healing
      for people.

Silver:      -Allah has made this the color of some roofs of peoples
      houses.
     -The glasses the the inhabitants of Jannah will drink from
      will be silver. These glasses would be so thin, it would
      be transparent.  

Grey:      -Allah has made the mountains with various shades of grey.


     When you look around in the world, you will see many things
of with many colours. Everywhere you look you will see Allah's
Handiwork. Allah has favored us much by giving us the ability to
perceive the different colors. All praises are due to Him.

     Allah has made these colors that way for a reason.
Allah has made everything in His creation for a reason.
Allah did not create the things in the heavens and the earth
in error. All Glory is to Him. May Allah increase us all in
knowlege and wisdom, and make us people that contemplate His
beautiful creation. May Allah make us people that remember Him
much and be thankful to Him. Amin.
