and among the evidences for this is the ḥadīth of ʿAmr ibn Ḥurayth who said: "It is as if I am looking at the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) on the pulpit, wearing a black turban, with its ends hanging between his shoulders (in another narration: its end)." Narrated by Muslim (4/112), Abū Dāwūd (4077), and al-Nasāʾī (2/300) - and the other narration is for both of them - and Ibn Mājah (3587). And from that is the ḥadīth of ʿĀʾishah: "that Jibrīl (peace be upon him) came to the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) on a mule, wearing a turban with its end between his shoulders. I asked the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam), 'Did you see him?' He said, 'That was Jibrīl (peace be upon him).'" Narrated by Aḥmad (6/148, 152) and al-Ḥākim (4/193-194) who said: "Its isnād is authentic." Al-Dhahabī agreed with him. I say: They both erred, for it includes ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿUmar al-ʿUmrī al-Mukabbir, who is weak.

"Whoever abandons wearing clothes out of humility for Allāh, while he is able to wear them, Allāh will call him on the Day of Resurrection before the heads of creation, and he will be given the choice to wear whichever garments of faith he wishes." Narrated by al-Tirmidhī (2/79), al-Ḥākim (4/183), Aḥmad (3/439), and Abū Nuʿaym in "al-Ḥilyah" (8/48)
