Some hadiths of our Prophet's (pbuh) regarding Muslims
dressing well and being of good quality are as follows:
Abu'l-Ahwas related the following on the authority of his
father, Malik bin Nadlah: "I came to the Prophet (pbuh)
wearing old clothes, and he said: 'Do you have any proper-
ty?' I said: 'Yes!' He asked: 'What kind?' I said: 'I have every
kind, i.e., camels, cattle, horses, and sheep.' [The Prophet]
said: 'If God gives you wealth, then let it show on you.'"
(Imam Ahmad recorded this hadith from Sufyan bin `Uyay-
nah, from Abu Az-Za`ra' `Amr bin `Amr, from his uncle Abu
Al-Ahwas `Awf bin Malik bin Nadlah from his father,
Malik bin Nadlah.)
Narrated from Jabir (ra): We went to the Battle of Anmar
with the Prophet (pbuh) ... O Messenger of God, we have a
friend from Medina. We also prepared him. He follows
behind and protects us. The man came with two torn pieces
of clothing. When the Prophet (pbuh) saw him he asked,
"Does he have nothing else to wear than these two torn
pieces of clothing?" "He has two other pieces of clothing I
gave him in his bag." "Call him and tell him to put those
on." I called him over, and he put those on. As the man
turned to go, the Messenger of God (pbuh) said: "Is it not
better for him (instead of wearing old clothes when he has
new ones)?" The man heard this and said, "O Messenger of
God! Should I also wear new clothes when I go on jihad on
the path of God?" "Yes, even when waging jihad on the path
of God." (Great Hadith Collection, Jam al-Fawaid, Min
