better and be an ABS Allah Allahu alayhi wa salam ala visa Jupiter
and Rumi get into yoga tell Khamenei look at Hadith number 62.
It's related from a sub nomadic or the Allah one. He says that cannot
have a theory la Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam the
most beloved type of clothing
to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa salam yellowblue that he used to
wear. So this is as opposed to what he may lay down, he may use
this for some other purpose. This is what he used to actually wear.
The best the most beloved was the Hebrew. This Hebrew was a type of
shawl or sheet, a kind of a garment that used to come from
Yemen. It's to be made of cotton.
And the specific characteristic of it, I think we may have discussed
it last time is that used to have red
lines in it.
So as we discussed, I mean, sometimes a particular area is
well known to make a certain pattern of clothing. And then in
that they could have different types of colors. But in this
particular case, it was a specific cloth that was made it was an
expertise of the area apparently, it's come from Yemen as just like
the Kittery cloth that we spoke about last time as well. So it
looks like that glittery cloth was from Yemen. And now this haber
this was the type of a shawl that was made from Yemen and it also
had red lines in it. Sometimes they will also make them with blue
lines or green lines, but the most famous ones were red
So it was this is what are the Allahu Anhu is describing that are
sort of Lassa blossom had one of these sheets on Cordoba says that
it could also refer to Hebrew doesn't necessarily have to be
from Yemen or it could be called Hebrew because it's Mahabharata,
which means that it's been, it's nicely designed. That's what the
word means. Now, what was it that a salsa lesson used to like about
it, it was very soft, was very supple, it was very soft, this
particular shawl is very soft, so soft, allah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam used to like it, because it was very conducive to his body and
his skin. He liked him. Because if you've got rough cloth, it's going
to irritate you. However, we did read earlier that the prophets of
Allah Musa also like clothing that wasn't very necessarily very soft,
didn't always go for clothing that was very soft. He used to try to
keep it slightly rough as well, so that it's not necessarily the
softness of the cloth. So in that sense, what we understand from
there then is
that it could be that the that which was sewn next to the skin,
the kameez that could be slightly rough, that's okay. But then this
one, which was a shawl, which was worn on top, it's okay for that to
be soft. So he used to, he used to, like, he used to like it for
that for that. Or it's possible that he used to like the communist
when he was a monkey in the inside of the house. And he used to like
the short when he was outside. So it's possible that when it says
that the most beloved cloth, it could be in different
circumstances, it doesn't mean that he had one favorite cloth in
his wear it throughout could be one favorite cloth for the inside,
when he was with his family with his wives. Or it could mean when
another cloth that when he was outside in the public, you have a
female that you haven't caught that you really like or a jacket
that you really like, and you have maybe something that you really
like to wear at home. You know, some people they just enjoy
wearing alone gear at home, right, because it's just much more
comfortable. And a t shirt. Right there was a friend of mine I used
to go used to get these oversized T shirts and a monkey and that's
what it was so comfortable. A triple X 4x t shirt, it was a
really big guy anyway, so so comfortable, long piano t shirt.
This was in California is quite hot there. So and then it's also
possible that the Hadith doesn't mean the absolute most beloved to
him among the most beloved him so all of these are possibilities.
The next hadith is Hadith number 63, which is related from Abuja,
Haifa, from his father, who says that I saw Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi salam, I once saw Rasulullah sallallahu, some
outside Mecca. This was in those areas outside Makkah, which is
called the Baja Omaka.
Right specific piece of land outside MCCA. That's where I saw
him.
In fact,
he had come out. And this time he says In another Hadith narrated by
Imam Bukhari,
it says, the prophets of Allah son was there in a red garment. Now,
we've discussed this before as to whether it was completely red. And
it was before the prohibition of red, or it was this Habanera kind
of clothing, which had red stripes in there and because that was the
kind of distinguishable cover color to make out. That's why this
hobby said he had this reddish color government on. So he says
that I saw Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa salam. Now this is a
very interesting Hadith, because this is the one that shows gives
you a bit more detail about how the Sahaba used to interact with
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam says, I saw Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi salam, and there were people around him, and they were
just rushing to try to catch, catch any drop that came off his
body when he was making wudu. So whatever anybody was able to catch
off that they wouldn't let it fall to the ground. Everybody tried to
get a bit, they would wipe it over their faces. Then after that
people went away, and others what they well people stood up
afterwards. And then what they started doing was they took his
hands and they were passing it over their faces, to get the
baraka to get the blessing of from him. So a Bucha heifers father
says that I also did the same thing. I also took hold of his
hand and I put it on my face. And he said that it was cooler than
snow, and it was more pleasant in its fragrance in its smell than
musk. So he the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam had just
performed voodoo and it must have been a hot day. So this was a
particular aspect that was to be noted that it felt so cool it felt
as though it was cooler than snow that's the way he describes it and
its fragrance was so intense like musk a better than musk in fact,
it says what are they He who lives on hombre so according to that
narration here in this book in Timothy says that he had this
reddish comment on and then he says get on the on the row. You
Buddy PSRP
I can just recall myself he's kind of relating his experience that I
remember looking at the shine of his carves, which means the pot
above the foot.
And essentially what that tells us is that the Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam did not wear his garments long as confirmed by
other Hadith as well, that the prophecy wasn't God garments did
not reach his ankles. In fact, he reached halfway between his knees
and his ankles. So here by this, you can actually see it, see his
his calves by that then he says Soufiane, who is one of the
moderators, he says that Raha Habanera? I, my interpretation of
this narration what he had on is that it was this haber this
Highbury cloth. So when he describes it as a red garment,
Sophia answers that this is what my understanding is that this was
must have been one of those Hebrew cloths or sheets that came from
Yemen, which had the red lines in him. Now, there's a big difference
of opinion about red cloth. There are some scholars who have
actually permitted it based on this hadith, they just looked at
literal understanding of this hadith and said, Read should be
fine. But the majority say no, some say it's mcru. Some say it's
more than mcru, that totally should be avoided. Some say it
depends. The reason why it's wrong is because it's like feminine
clothing. Or it's because of what these kinds of really blatant
transgressing type of people used to wear, just to be very fleshy
about it. So that's why it's wrong. There's nothing
intrinsically wrong about it. But then there is an occasion where
somebody came to Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam and he
had cloth that was colored in red, but that was dyed red using
herbs for another plant of some sort. And the royal awesome told
him to get rid of it. He said What should I wash it off or wash it?
He says not burn it. So he was really angry at that time. So
because of this being so intense, that's why the strongest opinion
is that you avoid it. There's also an opinion that outside it's wrong
to be flashy and so on, but you could wear it inside the house.
However, I think the concluding factor is that it cannot be
considered haram because of Brexit or some war some aspect of it
whether it was completely red or it was line Red Line red would be
would be okay anyway, but something with more red than that,
then it's better to avoid it unless there's an absolute need to
wear it for whatever reason, which I can't think about anyway. For
example, the way Imam Malik Rahim Allah the way he explains it, he
says, I don't know it to be haram. I can't say it's haram. But later
who I have bought in a year, something other than it is more
beloved to me, meaning I'd rather avoid it because of the the
possibility of it being haram or wrong. The next hadith is Hadith
number 64. In which it's something we've covered before but the
author has brought it back here. This is related from Barack Obama
is zebra the Allah one we read it when he was speaking about the
hair of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam says, But you know,
as it were, the Allahu Anhu says that Mara Ito had a minion * and
if you heard that in hamara min Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam in Cana Juma to hula Tada reboot kyriba Monkey bay here.
I've never seen anybody that is that look better, that look more
excellent. In a red garment in a red suit. Then Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and his long hair was
was hitting close to his shoulders, so is extended nearly
close to shoulders as we've explained before Rasulullah
sallallahu some normally had longer hair than short hair.
The next hadith is Hadith number 65. And this one Imam Timothy
relates from Abu Rinda who says that I saw Rasulullah sallallahu
alayhi wasallam and he had two sheets on
he was covered in two sheets, Boden. Boden is like a sheet and a
shawl of some sorts.
And it was green. So so far the kind of garment we've heard is
kameez is very beloved Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam used to wear
different types of sheets, right shawls that came from different
places, right? So
and then you hear that there was one with red stripes. And this one
is green cloths, the color green, and that is there's another virtue
to green because it is the the clothing of the people of
paradise. One of the reasons why it's probably used in practice.
It's the most natural kind of color, because it's the color of
nature outside good nature beauty of beautiful nature, which is the
greenery. So the fact that it's going to be one in paradise as the
chosen
Color and Paradise supposed to be the best of everything, then that
in itself is sufficient and honor. So I think
to be practical about this, because we're reading this one is
that we just read it, read it and we revel in it. Another thing is
that we're going to hear the virtue of white sometimes will I
see a lot more white today? Right. And there's still a lot of black,
but I guess it's okay with white. But the other thing is that
let's try to get something that's green as well.
Just because the prophets Allah Lawson wore green, and it's the
color of paradise. So it's a good symbolism. So get something that's
green, whatever that may be, whether it be a turban, or a
shawl, for that matter, or a garment of some sort, a green
garment, not kind of lime green, right, some decent green,
respectable, honorable, green, green, we'll leave we'll leave the
lime green, all of that stuff to the women. That's their sunnah. So
there's another Hadith from Yarralumla Omiya. He says that
Rasulullah sallallahu once made tawaf around the house of Allah,
and he had on a green shawl.
So maybe at that time, it was permissible. Later, only white was
allowed. Right. So he had a green cloth on in which he was making
dough off at that time, or he could have been enough as though
he was not necessarily in a haram, just making enough of the wealth
while he was there. The next hadith is Hadith number 66, which
is related from
a person whose name is Abdullah Hypno, Hassan Al ambery. He
relates this from his two grandmother's maternal and
paternal grandmother. They were actually closely related, right,
so both his maternal and paternal grandmother's, he relates his
Hadith from them.
According to this version, it says their names were de haber, an
early labor, but according to the more correct opinion, their names
were de haber and Sofia,
Daughters of early labor. So labor was a great great grandmother. And
they relate this Hadith from another woman. Bayla Binti Mahama
played a bindi Maha Rama, and she was from the Sahaba yet, so this
is a narration of, in which there are many women, the Rita's
she says that I saw Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa salam or
eaten the BSL Allahu Allah he will send them why they smell. Mala
Yeah, attain Girnar tab is that a foreign worker enough other to so
essentially what she's saying is isodecyl allah sallallahu alayhi
wa sallam and he had these two garments on him, like these two
over garments on him. They, the description she gives us that they
were really worn out.
So now we hear a hadith in which the Prophet salallahu Salam it's
described is described as wearing something that's worn out, you
could tell that these were old and worn clean is a different story.
But these were old and worn. That's what it means a smell. When
a cloth is very worn, says Malaya, tain Canada busy front, which
means that they used to be colored with Zafran.
But then to clarify that he wasn't wearing yellow, crimson colored
clothing that were colored with xylophone which he is prohibited.
She says, Good Enough about true that the color had had been
dissolved had been had disappeared. So at one time, it
used to be colored like that. And it wasn't like that anymore. So
maybe the promise that was made or acquired from somewhere like that,
but this was very old worn clothing that the color had
totally receded from. So this shows that Rosa Lawson also had
that she exactly Rahmatullahi it in his commentary, he relates that
the price or loss or wants even pay 27 camels for a piece of
cloth, a garment, and then he wore it as well. And then he didn't I
mean, 27 camels. To give you an idea of what one camel cost today,
it should cost over 500 pounds for a camel today. All right. So when
you're talking about 27 times 500 We're talking about a huge amount.
I don't want you run into Harrods tomorrow. Okay, just to do that.
Because then what you're gonna have to do is you're gonna have to
buy it, wear it and then give it away in sadhaka. Right. So if you
want to do that, you could do that.
But I'm sure you could spend that much money in sadaqa. Just like
that. And the poor person might appreciate the prophets, Allah
sama the purpose for which he did what he did, is to show that if
there is a wealthy person, and that's the kind of glib clothing
that is permissible. Now, the big thing is that you see two sides,
you see Rasulullah sallallahu Sallam doing both things.
His insight, his practice, his thought, was just so extensive,
that he had a whole onma Can you
Imagine if the prophets Allah was an extremist. And he just focused
on one thing on one side how difficult the deen would have been
for us in the neck. I'm talking about extremists in a negative
sense. He was extremely came to the love of Allah subhanaw taala
no doubt about those things where it had to be. But he did so many
different things so flexible in those things that allowed for
later people. That if there is somebody who wants to renounce the
world and wear something that's worn out, absolutely do so. And
then some of the Sahaba picked that up and did exactly that. And
what are the Allah until the last moment he did that? He goes into
Jerusalem as a conqueror like that. And yet there's others like
a bull or Bader Abner Jarrah more Elvia rhodiola, and they sort of
times a change. So then they took on good clothing because they had
to to make an impression otherwise people would look down and would
not respect them. Then you see the aroma later on do the same thing.
Imam Malik used to do that. And others used to do that. But the
way that sort of Lhasa Lawson did all these different things, he
showed what the preference was that normally he would do a
particular thing to show the preference for that thing, because
that was the best. And he says, I want to be gathered among the
Fukuhara. But then he showed where it's permissible to do something
else as well. Right. Now, in terms of that, it's related from our
issue to the Allahu anha that once also allah sallallahu alayhi wa
sallam said to me, this confirms this state his normal state,
right? Despite the fact that he had good clothing on sometimes as
well. I shudder the allowances Rasulullah sallallahu sallam said
to me, if you want to be with me, meaning in paradise falta Khan
will have to come in at dunya Casa de rock hub, then make sure that
your provision, whatever you carry with you of the dunya is as much
as a person who's on a journey, how much can you take a normal
person, not a person not a king who goes with the entourage takes
everything with them. Now, this is speaking about a normal person,
how much should they take with them? What are the steps the
Thoburn had to carry he was a year ago when we Julissa Lavinia and do
not change your garment until you have to patch it up. So wear it
wear it until it becomes so worn that it needs patches. And only
after that, are you able to remove it, to change it. And be careful
beware of sitting with wealthy people, because the love of what
good things will come into your heart. There was one of the shakes
of the Haramain. He just came to South Africa and one of their
alumni who was with him was explaining to me, he said that we
would go to you know, when he was taken to a rich person's house to
shake would look around, he'd realize that this is a rich
person. And he told me very quietly as at low morale, and
Catherine not had been Hornak not heard another had been Hana.
Right? Allah subhanaw taala has given a lot to this, man, let's
get out of here. Right, so you sit for a bit more respected, and he
would leave just so that the love of these things would not come
into your heart. So there's people like that today as well. Abu
Huraira the Allahu anha and who says that actually the Allahu
anha.
After this advice of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi salam she lived
for a very long time afterwards. Abu Huraira reports that she used
to give sadaqa of 10,000 He used to give 10,000 Just like that in
sadaqa. Whereas her Garmin that he she had on would be patched up. So
she wouldn't spend on herself after that. She would just give
out and she would say la hija delivered dunya Baraka Rasulullah
sallallahu alayhi salam I have no need in this world after
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa salam somebody said to Salman and
Farsi Radi Allahu Malik little bustle has been a Thea but why
don't you wear good excellent clothing, silk and other clothing?
He says Merill Abdiweli thornbill Hussen? What's the what's it a
slave and a good clothing? Why Why should Why should that those two
get together. And then he said, If a servant is freed from the
hellfire, then he will have the best of clothing by Allah subhanaw
taala which will never be worn out on what Torah the Allah one used
to go around. And he used to have patch garments as we spoke about
earlier.
One occasion 12 patches 12 patches he had our own which tool from
leather. So they weren't even from like the same kind of clothing on
the day of Jerusalem when he had to go to receive the keys of the
city of will obey the villager Radi Allahu Anhu said to him that
could you wear something else? You know, could you change your
garment? In fact, towards the end afterwards, some of the Sahaba got
together and they knew that they didn't have the guts to go to him.
They sent our Isha and have sort of the Allahu anha to him. That
you go and tell him that isn't two things. One is will instead of
this
really basic cause food that you eat will give you something
special. Just one and something else. So they were the only ones
that have sort of the alarm said, Look, don't bother, he's not going
to change. You're wasting your time. But they still went because
the other Sahaba told them to go. And finally, when they did go, he
started crying. And he said to actually the Allahu Ana, out of
all the people, you're the one who come to tell me this to pull me to
the world, I would have thought you would have told me something
else. He made her feel so guilty. She had obviously only gone
because the Sahaba had
had really pushed her to go. He until the last minute his focus
was totally different. So then he replied, He says inna Coleman
artisan Allah who will Islam for intolerable is a bill at Otherland
Allah, we are a people who Allah subhanho wa Taala is honored by
Islam. And when we go to seek honor in anything other than
Islam, then Allah subhanahu wa taala will humiliate us. Now he is
speaking about it in a context you have to understand, it's not about
the clothing, that was an issue. The thing was that the reasoning
they were giving of why he should change his clothing, he should
improve his clothing is because of
what the others were doing, the Romans were doing.
So then he was saying you're not supposed to learn things from them
like that. We've already got an honor given to us. So it wasn't
about the clothing in particular, it's about why they wanted him to
wear different clothing. So one must realize that because Islam
doesn't tell us that you have to wear a worn out clothing, because
in fact, the majority of the scholars afterwards did not do
that they followed the path that an alum a shave and a scholar must
look imposing, because they'll have more respect on people and
people will respect you more than one humiliating look down upon
them. Because this is the way people are. You see somebody
dressed shabbily in saw in, in worn out clothing, they it doesn't
give them the same impact as somebody who's dressed smart and
decent and elegantly. That's what's important. That's why the
other ma later on, that's what they said. So it's not that he was
condemning the use of good clothing. It was just in a context
that
they had provided they had given him that matura you see what
happened later on in the kind of Middle Ages afterwards, is that
this kind of clothing became rough kind of clothing, wool and rough
kind of clothing became kind of a sign of the Sufis people that were
cut away that the zoo heard really, that were cut away from
the world, then people began to abuse that look. So whoever wanted
to make some money and wanted people to feel sorry for them, and
to make sadaqa on them, they start to started to wear this kind of
clothing, grow very long beards, and look all disheveled just so
that people could, people will feel sorry for them.
So it's gone through a number of changes in terms of the way people
did these things. Sheikh Ahmed Hassan Shah very, he was he used
to wear very elegant the Naqshbandi is among the Sufi
orders the Naqshbandi is and the shadows are known to be focused on
very elegant dress
in the way they in the way they appearances, the way they do their
mosta, especially the Knoxville News as well. So Chicago has an
usher that he there was a person that came to him who was who had
really worn out clothing, and he kind of criticized him. He
criticized shakable has an issue that was his elegant clothing
you're wearing. So he said to him. Yeah, Heather. Oh, so and so. You
know? Hey at her the taco Alhamdulillah Well, hey, I took
her her the taco, to Neiman duniya, comerciais and dilla.
So he said that this state of mine, it proclaims all praises to
Allah.
So when somebody sees me like this, they thing all praises to
Allah. Look how nice that is. Your state the way you look. It
proclaims give me some of your dunya for the sake of Allah. So
beggars people.
It's actually calling out to people. That's why if the NEA is
correct, when you wear these things, then there's absolutely no
nothing wrong with it. And if it's done for the sake of protecting
yourself, like even if a person is poor, but they were decent
clothing outside so people don't know they're poor and don't have
to feel sorry for them and so on because they only want to focus on
Allah subhanho wa taala. And a person is distant from showing off
and fame. And he's doing this just to show the name of Allah subhanho
wa Taala on him without being arrogant and
boasting about it, then to wear good clothing would be
praiseworthy. And today I think this is the situation to where
good, elegant clothing is considered praiseworthy. Allah
subhana wa
Allah says Muhammad Zenith Allah, Who is the one who makes the Zina
the elegance that Allah subhanho wa Taala has provided who makes it
haram? Why should you make it haram on yourself?
Originally everybody what about him in a risk Why should you
prohibit yourself from these things? The Prophet SAW Allah some
also said in the lodge Amin on your hippo Jamal, Allah is
elegant, Allah is beautiful and he loves beauty and elegance. Another
Hadith and Sunnah and says, in the law you hate Bucha Yara a thorough
near me here Allah. Allah likes to see the effects of his blessings
on his servant is blessed you with something and you don't you don't
express it. You make people feel like you got nothing that Allah
has blessed you with that. That's wrong. It's okay if people know
that's a different story. Once this person comes to you mumble
Hanifa is totally he's got really worn out clothing after everybody
goes around waiting for calls him and tries to give him some money
that go you know us and hurl a gun reform yourself. So he says I'm
not in need of this. I've got money. So isn't why do you make
yourself look like you need help. So it's not a good idea to do
that. And the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam used to sometimes
dress up, especially when it was for the food for the delegations
that used to come. This was the first time they were coming. There
had to be an impact on them. Sometimes the local people knew
him. So he wasn't it doesn't matter how casual he was because
the premises wasn't didn't have pretenses, but when they were
people coming you have to then set up for it. He used to have
different types of turbans for them as well, that he used to
wear. Imam nessa relates that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa salam
once sought a man and he had clothing that was really inferior
type. And he said to him, Hello, come in Merlin, do you have some
wealth? Meaning do you have wealth? I mean, have you got
money? And he said, Yes, I have. He says,
what type of wealth you have. He said maybe you know he had a horse
or something like that. So he says what type of wealth do you have?
He says mean Cooley Merlin. You know Allah subhanaw taala is give
me all types of wealth I've got I've got cows and I've got I've
got Sorry, I've got cattle and I've got to camels and so on. So
then the prophets of Allah some said, Could Luma attack Allah Amin
Merlyn for your alayka if Allah subhanaw taala has given you so
much why isn't it seen on you then? Why isn't it seen on you?
Allah subhanaw taala has given you so many bounties than Why are you
doing this? Well, maybe net material bigger for Hadith, the
bounties of your Lord proclaim them this is one way that you were
decent clothing, not showing off just to wear decent clothing so
people will respect you. Remember Zara relates. Imam bazar relates
that probably so Allah made this dua it's a very famous DUA and we
should make it Allahu majali Shah Quran which Ernie Subodh on, which
only fee ayeni Severen Wafi, our unit nurse, he could be wrong. Oh
Allah, make me thankful make me of the grateful ones. Make me of the
patient ones when required when it's required. Make me in my eyes
make me small, and in the eyes of people make me make me big. So
what the other might explain is that if you consider yourself
small, then it doesn't matter how great people consider you, it's
not going to affect you. Because it's about the secret of fame and
arrogance. And all of these things is about what we consider
ourselves. That's why this guy is very powerful. That makes me smile
in my sight first, doesn't matter how, and make me big in the eyes
of people just so they will respect me, they will give me back
my hack if my rights if they owe it to me, they won't take me for a
ride. These are the kinds of benefits that are gained by this
kind of a DA and dressing this way.
See the what the law says that when people look at the outside,
they look at what you the way you are, then in that case, then you
have to be able to keep yourself in a way because how many people
you're gonna go to explain that. No, it's not like this. So it's
different. Especially if it's in a Halloween thing. If it's in a
Halloween thing. It's a different story. That's why there's a poet
Hilah Lucknow who Vale he was orlimar he was an iron him as
well. He said has Cynthia Baca Mustapha in Zeno, Ricciardi Bihar
to Azula to Chrome, whether it our Dr. Phil LIBOR, Sita hushan for
Allah who yeah La MaMa to see Aruba tech tune for Rita so bigger
la Z Dukkha Rifat and endl Isla, he will enter Abdul Majid Remo,
were JD done so book Elia de Ruka, Burma docshell illa huwa taki uma
Johar Romo. Make your clothing nice, as much as you can. For the
elegance of men is the thing by which they gain respect and honor
and abandon this humility in clothing so that you're going
after rough cloth or rough clothing for Allah subhanho wa
Taala knows what's in your heart and what you hide
because these are people who used to wear this kind of clothing that
were claiming to be cut away from the dunya so he says it's about
what's in your heart. Then he says
the one nature of your clothing is not going to elevate you not
increase you in elevation in the sight of Allah subhanahu wa Tada
while you are a transgressor inside and your new clothing will
not harm you if you have new clothing it will not harm you.
After you fear Allah subhanho wa Taala and you abstain from his
forearms. Imam Malik Rahim Allah used to wear excellent clothing,
Imam Abu Hanifa, the same thing. Mo we use of once went to Imam Abu
Yusuf relates he was with Harun Rashid in Baghdad
or not, he was with Honduras in Baghdad. But this story didn't
necessarily take place in Baghdad. He says I was with Harun Rashid,
the great Khalif and Imam Malik, he came to see him he came to see
how Rashid and he had this black identity again I then seems to be
from Yemen capital of Yemen.
I didn't he had this black either any cloth clothing on
an Imam will use of says Wallahi Mara a to che and cut to us and I
mean, who I've never seen anything as beautiful as that. Imam Malik
just walked in with this black, elegant piece of identity
clothing. Right such that Emma will use it was totally amazed.
How don't Rashid moved up for him on his wherever he was sitting and
made him sit next to him. That's why the L LM says that it is
necessary especially for the people of knowledge that they
should it's part of the manliness is part of good honor and dignity
that they should do this to respect the knowledge that they
have. Because I'm what are the Allahu Anhu used to say? No, he
didn't like it for himself. But he used to say that I would love it
that the quarry has white clothing on the quarry, the people who
recite the Quran, they should wear white clothing on and I like it
that the people have knowledge and piety. They should have good
clothing on elegant clothing on that is permissible. There was a
very pious individual
whose name was sejarah.
He wants entered bizarro and he wanted to visit Malik Medina.
So he goes in, he goes to bustle and he goes to the gathering. He
had some really nice clothing on some garments on.
So he started praying salaat and his Salatu was very beautiful as
well. So Malik given Edina didn't recognize him. He didn't know him
from before he'd heard about him.
And he saw him praying this really long salaat and this beautiful
clothing and he was imposing you, you just you were attracted to the
side, you just couldn't miss the sight.
So he wait, he sat there and waited. So let's say you're
finished and this Malika Medina who is known to be a really pious
individual.
He said to him, how they salt Well, her the theory of this
really, you know, long salad that you perform this beautifully, you
know, slow long salad you perform and his clothing. You kind of
remark like what's give me give me some background. So say y'all said
Thea be heavy. The family in Dec. Oh Thadani.
He asked him a question. He said this clothing that you see on me
today raised me in your eyes or do they put me down in your eyes? So
he was very honest. He said, they put me down they put you down in
my eyes. So he's that's exactly what I wanted. I wanted to be put
down in your eyes.
Because if he knew who he was speaking to, he could have you
know, so then he said, Yeah Malik in Nila Cebu Thal Baker Haney got
unzila come enough SICA Mala Mian Zulu kala Ahmad I mean, Zulu Kala,
because it looks like Malik Abel Medina didn't have that great
clothing on so then CRS response to him was that, what I think is
that your clothing is putting you more down in yourself, then Allah
subhanaw taala has put your status, that you're putting
yourself more lower than Allah subhanaw taala has put you by
putting these clothing on, you're putting yourself more down than
Allah has put you. So pious people, they understand these
people have inside they understand when somebody says, the right
thing. So Malik, he began to cry, he began to weep. And he said unto
the car, you must be car and he said, Yes, I am. So he took he
embraced him. And then he sat in front of him.
So at the end of the day, that it's about intention of why you
were what you were, and this is what we love.
And from our pious predecessors, are actually the Allahu Anhu
reports that the prophets Allah son was inside the house and a
group of Sahaba were outside, they just come to see Rasulullah
sallallahu somebody wanted to see him about something. So the
Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was in the house, probably
casually dressed and quickly to go outside.
He got up and there was some water there. So he looked into it like a
mirror, to make sure that his hair and his beard was fine. Because of
course, he was very particular about keeping his hair combed and
his oiling it and so on. So it was probably lying in the house. And
when this happened, he went and looked into it to make sure that
he straightened out his hair and his his beard, and I should have
the Aloha surprise, she said, yeah rasool Allah whatever Allah, you
know, ya rasool Allah, you do this as well. So he said, Now I'm
either horrible, Rajan either echo an infant, you hate me enough,
say, for in Elijah Muller and your humble German, that if a person
goes out to see his friends, his brothers, then he should prepare
for them. Allah subhanaw taala is beautiful, and he likes beauty.
That's what he said at the time. Now, he mentions in here on Ahmed
Deen that sometimes somebody might read the story and say, well, the
prophecy. You know, there are people who say that you this is
kind of a shake, that you're beautifying yourself or somebody
else other than Allah subhanho wa taala. Not necessarily should but
this is some kind of hypocrisy or something of that nature.
That this is you're doing it for the people. The Prophet sallallahu
alayhi wa sallam,
you have to remember where he was coming from. He he was here for
that hour, he was a dairy. And he, he had, if he,
it's okay, if he was casual sometimes. But sometimes, he just
felt that he had to be dressed in a particular way, or he had to
appear in a particular way so that the impact would be greater in
what he said and what he did. Because I mentioned that when
you're not dressed, or when you're disheveled, and people lose the
respect for you. Especially if you're a respectable individual.
That's why some of them I remember, I went to one islands
house, and I went out of my room to the main room, and he was
without my hat on, and he was shocked.
This is not the majority, but this is one particular friend of mine
who I know, he is quite surprised. He said, Oh, you came without a
hat. He said, Why? What's wrong with that? It's quite normal. I
mean, to be without a hat and in the house, what's the problem with
it? So he says, oh, you know, and so he would always have a hat on
but that was his level of higher I guess. And that's fine. Then Imam
told me this says that this is a very big story.
This is a very, this is a very long Hadith. There's a big story
behind this particular Hadith. We've been on this hadith for a
very long time. And the Hadith was which one? It was the one in which
it says that the Sahaba says that I saw Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
wasallam where he had these worn out clothing on, right, yeah, this
one out clothing that were colored with saffron at one time, but no,
there was no color left on there. So
Imam Timothy says that there's a very long story here, which I
haven't included because the purpose of this hadith is to just
show you about the clothing of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi
salam. Now what is that story? So it's a very long story. So we're
not going to go into in depth but it's very simple. Even though
hedger relates as related by Mantovani that
a person came to the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam. And he
said, As salam o ALLAH, Rasool Allah,
peace be upon you, or messenger of Allah, wa Iike Salam Rahmatullah
and the prophets of Allah Islam had these worn out garments on at
that time. Now, look at this. What it's explaining is that the
prophets of Allah Hassan was squatting, he was sitting in a
squat, he had these worn out garments on exactly as described
in this hadith, exactly as described, that were originally
colored with David Safra with the wasn't saffron. But the color had
receded. And he had a small stick from a palm branch. And the way he
looked in that particular situation, was so or inspiring,
that this person would come in began to tremble began to totally
tremble. So the Prophet said, Allah said alayka Sakina
should have Trank tranquillity descend upon you. So then the
Sahaba says, that this or that I was feeling and this trembling
that had overcome me, it suddenly disappeared when the prophets of
Allah Some said that to me. So that's the story, but it's a very
lengthy story. It goes on a bit longer in much more detail than
that, but that's enough for us to understand. The next hadith is
Hadith number 67. Which is related from Sati Domina. Gob from ignore
buzzworthy Allah one now so far, just to clarify
because we don't want to lose track of what we've read, red
lined clothing, red garment of some sorts, green clothing shawl
sheet and commies now and from Yemen, right? It's possible that
it was made by Muslims it was possible that it may have not been
because we don't know if that that particular area had embraced Islam
then or most likely may have because much of Yemen had come
under Islam anyway. Right but we don't know for sure. We've got a
hadith coming in front that shows that it's permissible to wear
garments from non Muslims because the prophets Allah son wore them
from Sharm Rome, a nice big Juba on top. But this one is now
encouragement, which is direct encouragement so far, it's about
what Rasulullah sallallahu was wearing. Right? Well, he was
observed as wearing and in this one is not what he was observed as
wearing. It's what he says you should wear. So now listen to this
very carefully. This hadith is related from Abner Abba, the
Allahu Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said, are they
compelled by out mithya AB li al Bishara? Hiya UQAM were caffeine
ofii hameau talcum for in the home in Haiti Thea become
he said, You must adopt white clothing, you must take on white
clothing, you must use white clothing.
Because and then he says, Your living should wear it. And you
should also Bury Your Dead in it, you should also shroud your dead
in it. So both your living and your dead people should wear it
white clothing should dominate because it is the best of your
clothing. It is the best of the of the cloth or the garments that you
could buy as white. In the next Hadith, he will say it's most
Arteaga it's the most pure and the most will wait for that hadith.
But essentially, he did not say here. He did not say here the most
beloved, or the most superior. He said
he said higher with the most goodness in it. And the reason is
that it's probably green is superior. Most virtue because it
being the cloth of paradise. So or it could mean that it's both so
green and white we see great praise for it's also related that
the best the most beloved color to Allah so you know people like
what's the Allah's favorite color? You notice people who say that,
right? So it's related that the most beloved color to Allah
subhanaw taala is white. The next Hadith which supports this hadith
is related from somewhere immunogen dub Rhodiola one Rasul
allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said Now both of these are Hadith,
verbal statements of Rasul Allah. In this one again, he said, Elvis
will be by yard, where white clothing. In fact, he doesn't say
wear white clothing says wear white to make it so particular
just wear white to make it more significant for inner Uttara.
Because it is the most purest of clothing is the most purest of
colors. White. We're at the hub, and it is the most excellent. So
what is a tsar an ltr mean? Author normally means to hear from Tahara
means clean. And the reason is that if you've got colored
clothing, if it's colored, and some, it becomes soiled, you can
get away with it. When it's white and a bit, you get a speck on
there it shows so you have to wash it. So white cloth, white clothing
is going to be washed more is going to be looked after more.
Because you're going to make sure that nothing touches it, you got
black clothing, you're just going to walk through it through no
problem, right? That's the problem with jeans, they never get dirty.
So when it's white, it's going to stay more clothing. The other
thing is the way you could wash white, you could be more rough
with it because you're not worried about losing color. So you could
put bleach and you could put all sorts of things in there. So
normally you Why is probably going to be cleaned the most. That's why
at home in laundries, you have the whites and then you have the
colors, right? Because they're normally done differently. I'll
tee up the reason why it's the most excellent and the best
attributes from tube tube as opposed to a beef. Right? So the
word hobby, normally the word type is used for halal.
So why is going to be the most Halal of your cloth? And probably
the reason for that is that why is a clothing where it's not bright,
whatever other color, so that you show off with it, it's just white,
simple, straightforward, white. So it's got to be more cleaner for
your knifes, as well. It's also probably easier to deal with
because you don't have to worry about the color. I mean, we don't
we don't die clothing nowadays, but in those days, they used to
have white cloth and nice to go to die and have it died and so on
whatever color they wanted. And then the other thing is that since
it's going to be given to your dead as well. It's a symbolism
towards that, that this is where we're going with purity and with
nothing. We don't have any baggage even in terms of
Color on our cloth on our garment worker phenol via multicam. And
the reason why you normally keep on
the disease you use white is because it's to show cleanliness.
One of the duels you read for a minute is Allah Who Marcel who
Bill Murray you are thrilled you will Bharat will not be here
Meenal Hatha Yoga coma you naka thoubal abio Domina Denis? Right,
Allahu maxilla. O Allah wash him, Bill MA with water with hail and
with snow, like washing with everything that you could wash him
with and purify him from sins, just like white cloth is cleansed
from all types of dirt. So that's why we put white cloth on there as
a symbol of purity and cleanliness from sins so that the person is
forgiven. That's one of the benefits of using white for the
deceased. And thus, it's also one of the benefits that if a person
is white, it's a symbol to protect us from sins, that we just like
we're going to not want any blemish on our clothing, we don't
want anything to touch it. And we're very careful about where we
are and what happens to it. And we keep it clean. We want to keep our
insight and our heart clean as well. So if we do make a sin,
we'll make Toba but we're going to try to be careful this could be
one of the reasons why the price of last courage weighed so much.
And the province that a lot ism is related to have worn white which
is going to come later in the chapter on the turban of
Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wasallam says that he had white
clothing on so now we've got another color to add white
clothing White is something mashallah what you where you get
one of these folders, you're going to have white you know, these
define all these things you're going to get white anyway but
green is something we need to get right still. The next one is
Hadith number 69 which is related from our a shot of the Allahu anha
if you notice most of these are Hadith were not from our Isha to
the island by the clothes. She didn't really speak about the
clothing and everything as much. But in this case, says that once
was all allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam went out in the afternoon.
And he had on a very long sheet, a long shawl. This is Wiley he
Middleton Minh shattered in a sweat that was from black hair. So
it was made from some kind of some kind of hair, right?
cloth that had hair on it.
This is this other Hadees that describe this that it was
something that had some kind of different patterns on it. So it
was something that he walked outside with just on top covering
himself. So that's the kind of a shawl with some kind of hair on it
could be some kind of fairy
cloth that it was and the last Hadith has had this number 70
which is related from Mahira Abner Shabbat or the hola one from his
father Mahira
sorry, it's related from Ottawa even though Mahira even a sharp
but so Mahira even a sharp is the narrator of it. That the Prophet
sallallahu alayhi wa sallam once wore a Juba. Now in the Indo Pak
subcontinent, you refer to Juba is normally the the Long Tunic, the
normal tunic that you wear, which in Arab countries, you mostly call
it a jalopy or a job, like the normal clothing that you wear. But
a jumper here actually refers to like an overcoat and over garment
along kind of show that you wear over everything. And essentially
what this was, this was a two you can say, this was like the coats
we have today or jackets, where you have two sides to it. The you
have a lining, and you have the outside, and it would be filled
with something. So it was either filled with cotton or it was
filled with wool. So this was for the warmth of it. And this was
something that was normally made from Sham from Syria, which was
Krishna at that time. So in this hadith in one narration is a sham.
In another one it says Rumia Roman. So this proves that a
professor Lawson was imported an imported garment, especially for
the outside, right because he was traveling this most likely this
took place during the expedition of the book. And then in the in
this description it says that while he Jupiter in Romania,
well actually it says Libya and Namibia Salalah Horace Alaba
Jupiter and Romania and Takata kumain the pot of the sleeve was
very tight. So what what is reported as in Buhari and so on,
is that this was had some wool in it as well. And the other thing
was that this was on a journey and the prophets of Allah some went
and make will do. And he was he washed his face and then he wasn't
able to push up his sleeve. So it says that he took out his sleeve
from underneath and washed his arms from underneath, and then
they got a bit delayed. So when they went back to the people, for
some reason, they felt that Rasulullah sallallahu sallam was
gone somewhere or whatever the story was, they'd put up the
romantic mouth forward to lead the Salatu was a fajr prayer. So he's
the only other person who rasool Allah, Allah and prayed behind he
caught him in the second record. So he prayed behind him and then
when he made Salam province, Allah some stood up to finish his
A lot of so the only other person that is prayed behind is will
Bukhara Siddiqa, the Allah one and Abdullah motive mouth and
Abdulmalik mouth is one of the 10 Sahaba, to be given the glad
tidings of paradise. So this shows that there's nothing wrong with
wearing non Muslim clothing as such made by them, as long as it
serves a particular purpose not to copy some fashion or something.
That's the main thing. What they're really saying here is that
you don't want to wear any kind of clothing that are normally worn by
for sock. So if a person is goes around, be careful when you wear
hoodies. Right, because based on this, that would be an issue. I
mean, the police don't like people wearing hoodies anyway, right?
Because whenever you see that, especially when you kind of
slouching around if you wear a hoodie or an elegant one, and keep
the hood off, or keep it in a way that you don't look shady
character, right. And the other thing you don't want to do is you
don't want to start putting these big chains and rings on. Right all
the bling bling stuff, because again, that makes it that's it
shows that it's a sign of this particular type of person. Right?
Also, if you're wearing baggy pants, baggy jeans, or whatever,
baggy, whatever you're wearing, for the sake of sunnah, it's fine.
But if you're saying it's a sunnah, but you're really wearing
it because you want to fit into a certain type of people that are
for sock, then that's also your intention is going to count there.
So this is the conclusion of it. So let's get some green. Right,
whatever that is one piece of garment that's green, and white
inshallah. And let's see if we can import some of this stuff from
Yemen. Right? Some of these special shows from Yemen, for the
Sunnah. Insha Allah, may Allah subhana wa Tada
bless us all May Allah subhanaw taala allow us to follow the
Sunnah of Rasulullah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Allah who went
to Silla and Casella and the Barak the other jewelry with the Quran,
