THE PROPHET’S FRIDAY DRESS

Hadrat Aishah (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anha) narrated: The Prophet had a special suit that he would wear on Fridays. When he returned from the Salaah we used to fold and lay it aside to be taken out only on the next Friday. (This is a weak tradition). [Tabbrani, Mujim Saghir]

According to the author of Safar-us-Sa’adah, the usual dress of the Prophet was a wrapping sheet, handkerchief and black garment. However in Mishkat there is a tradition as under.

Amr bin Hurais (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated, the Prophet preached on Friday wearing a black turban the ends of which he let hang between his shoulders. [Muslim]
