                     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
