SAHIH BUKHARI VOLUME 7 > BOOK 72: DRESS
Some clothes were presented to Allah’s Apostle as a gift and there was a black Khamisa with it. The
Prophet asked (his companions), “To whom do you suggest we give this Khamisa?” The people kept
quiet. Then he said, “Bring me Um Khalid,” So I was brought to him and he dressed me with it with
his own hands and said twice, “May you live so long that you will wear out many garments.” He then
started looking at the embroidery of that Khamisa and said, “O Um Khalid! This is Sana!” (Sana in
Ethiopian language means beautiful.) Ishaq, a sub-narrator, said: A woman of my family had told me
that she had seen the Khamisa worn by Um Khalid.

Narrated Said Al-Maqburi:
‘Ubai bin Juraij said to ‘Abdullah Ben ‘Umar, “I see you doing four things which are not done by
your friends.” Ibn ‘Umar said, “What are they, O Ibn Juraij?” He said, “I see that you do not touch ex –
cept the two Yemenite corners of the Ka’ba (while performing the Tawaf): and I see you wearing the
Sabtiyya shoes; and I see you dyeing (your hair) with Sufra; and I see that when you are in Mecca,
the people assume the state of Ihram on seeing the crescent (on the first day of Dhul-Hijja) while you
do not assume the state of Ihram till the Day of Tarwiya (8th Dhul Hijja).” ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar said
to him, “As for the corners of the Ka’ba, I have not seen Allah’s Apostle touching except the two Ye –
menite corners, As for the Sabtiyya shoes, I saw Allah’s Apostle wearing leather shoes that had no
hair, and he used to perform the ablution while wearing them. Therefore, I like to wear such shoes.
As regards dyeing with Sufra, I saw Allah’s Apostle dyeing his hair with it, so I like to dye (my hair)
with it. As regards the crescent (of Dhul-Hijja), I have not seen Allah’s Apostle assuming the state of
Ihram till his she-camel set out (on the 8th of Dhul-Hijja).”
