What You Will Learn

Clothing in Islam — the three kinds of clothing in Al-A‘raf 7:26, and “Allah is beautiful and loves beauty” (Sahih Muslim 91).
His clothing — the qamis he loved most (ash-Shama’il 55), the hibarah (Sahih al-Bukhari 5813), white and green clothes and a Byzantine robe with narrow sleeves.
The prayer for new clothes (ash-Shama’il 61) — praise, asking for the garment’s good and seeking refuge from its evil.
Khuffs, sandals and their etiquette — Dihyah’s gift, Ibn ‘Umar’s sibtiyyah sandals, beginning with the right and not walking in one sandal (ash-Shama’il 80).
The ring “Muhammad Rasul Allah” — letters to the kings (ash-Shama’il 91), the well of Aris, the ring on the right hand and the gold ring thrown away (ash-Shama’il 103).
Sword, armour, turban, izar, walk, sitting and reclining — Talhah at Uhud, the hem at mid-calf (ash-Shama’il 121), “as if the earth were folded for him” and “I do not eat while reclining”.

يَٰبَنِيٓ ءَادَمَ قَدۡ أَنزَلۡنَا عَلَيۡكُمۡ لِبَاسࣰا يُوَٰرِي سَوۡءَٰتِكُمۡ وَرِيشࣰاۖ وَلِبَاسُ ٱلتَّقۡوَىٰ ذَٰلِكَ خَيۡرࣱۚ ذَٰلِكَ مِنۡ ءَايَٰتِ ٱللَّهِ لَعَلَّهُمۡ يَذَّكَّرُونَ

“O children of Adam, We have bestowed upon you clothing to conceal your private parts and as adornment. But the clothing of righteousness - that is best. That is from the signs of Allah that perhaps they will remember.”
