Salaam, hope everyone is doing well.
I just had a quick question regarding the color green in Shia Islam.
My uncle has recently come back from a trip to Iraq and he brought me a green scarf which is predominantly worn by Syed's. I will try to attach a picture of a similar scarf to what he brought me below. A different aunt of mine said she has never heard of Syed's wearing such a scarf. Furthermore, someone told me that only descendants of Imam Hassan (AS) wear the green scarf, and descendants of Imam Hussain (AS) wear just plain black.
If it is necessary to know: I'm a Syeda, and my parents are from Pakistan. We are from the Rizvi line.
There is just a lot of confusion about this scarf around me, and I will appreciate it if someone could please shed some light on this matter. Please do leave some feedback. Thank you!
