1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,139 In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. 2 00:00:07,139 --> 00:00:09,199 With the pens of longing, 3 00:00:09,199 --> 00:00:11,779 And the ink of love, 4 00:00:11,779 --> 00:00:15,900 We record lines more precious than gold, 5 00:00:15,900 --> 00:00:17,899 In describing the Master of Creation, 6 00:00:17,899 --> 00:00:20,899 Peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. 7 00:00:20,899 --> 00:00:30,539 The Prophetic characteristics (Shama'il). 8 00:00:30,539 --> 00:00:38,390 Chapter: What has been narrated regarding the description of the turban of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him. 9 00:00:38,390 --> 00:00:39,390 The turban (al-'imamah): 10 00:00:39,390 --> 00:00:44,390 A name given to that which is worn upon the head, covering it completely. 11 00:00:44,390 --> 00:00:47,390 It was the custom of the Arabs to wear the turban. 12 00:00:47,390 --> 00:00:52,609 On the authority of Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 13 00:00:52,609 --> 00:01:00,609 The Prophet, peace be upon him, entered Makkah on the day of the Conquest wearing a black turban. 14 00:01:00,609 --> 00:01:03,890 This hadith indicates 15 00:01:03,890 --> 00:01:10,890 That the Prophet, peace be upon him, entered Makkah on the day of the Conquest wearing a black turban. 16 00:01:10,890 --> 00:01:15,890 It has previously passed in our discussion that he entered it while wearing a helmet (mighfar) upon his head. 17 00:01:15,890 --> 00:01:18,890 There is no contradiction between the two hadiths, 18 00:01:18,890 --> 00:01:24,890 As it is possible that the Prophet, peace be upon him, wore the helmet to protect his head, 19 00:01:24,890 --> 00:01:26,890 And wore the turban over it. 20 00:01:26,890 --> 00:01:32,890 It is also possible that he, peace be upon him, wore the helmet first, 21 00:01:32,890 --> 00:01:38,890 And then, once matters had settled, he removed the helmet and wore the turban. 22 00:01:38,890 --> 00:01:45,040 On the authority of Ja'far ibn 'Umar ibn Hurayth, from his father, who said: 23 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:53,040 I saw the Prophet, peace be upon him, delivering a sermon from the pulpit wearing a black turban. 24 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:59,290 This hadith provides evidence for the permissibility of wearing black at times. 25 00:01:59,290 --> 00:02:05,290 Hence, the Abbasid Caliphs adopted the wearing of black as their emblem, 26 00:02:05,290 --> 00:02:09,289 As well as for their governors, judges, and orators. 27 00:02:09,289 --> 00:02:14,449 However, the Prophet, peace be upon him, did not wear it as a regular, habitual garment, 28 00:02:14,449 --> 00:02:20,449 Nor was it his emblem during the Eids, Fridays, or major gatherings at all. 29 00:02:20,449 --> 00:02:26,449 Rather, it simply happened that he wore the black turban on the day of the Conquest, unlike the rest of the Companions. 30 00:02:26,449 --> 00:02:30,449 His other clothing on that day was not black. 31 00:02:30,449 --> 00:02:35,569 On the authority of 'Ubayd Allah ibn 'Umar, from Nafi', 32 00:02:35,569 --> 00:02:39,569 From Ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said: 33 00:02:39,569 --> 00:02:43,569 When the Prophet, peace be upon him, would wear a turban, 34 00:02:43,569 --> 00:02:47,629 He would let its end hang between his shoulders. 35 00:02:47,629 --> 00:02:51,629 Nafi' said: Ibn 'Umar used to do that. 36 00:02:51,629 --> 00:02:59,629 'Ubayd Allah said: I saw al-Qasim ibn Muhammad and Salim doing that as well. 37 00:02:59,629 --> 00:03:06,689 This hadith shows that when the Prophet, peace be upon him, would wear a turban— 38 00:03:06,689 --> 00:03:10,689 Meaning, he would put on the turban and wrap it around his head— 39 00:03:10,689 --> 00:03:13,689 He would let its end hang between his shoulders. 40 00:03:13,689 --> 00:03:19,689 Meaning, he would loosen his turban and let it fall so that its end would hang between the shoulders. 41 00:03:19,689 --> 00:03:21,819 This is called the dhu'abah (tail/end). 42 00:03:21,819 --> 00:03:25,819 His statement, "Ibn 'Umar used to do that," 43 00:03:25,819 --> 00:03:31,819 Means he would do with his turban just as the Prophet, peace be upon him, used to do, 44 00:03:31,819 --> 00:03:34,819 By creating a tail for it between his shoulders. 45 00:03:34,819 --> 00:03:39,849 And his statement, "I saw al-Qasim ibn Muhammad and Salim doing that," 46 00:03:39,849 --> 00:03:45,849 Means they would create a tail for their turbans and let it hang between their shoulders, 47 00:03:45,849 --> 00:03:50,849 Which is an indication that the righteous emulate one another. 48 00:03:50,849 --> 00:03:55,969 On the authority of Ibn 'Abbas, may Allah be pleased with them both: 49 00:03:55,969 --> 00:03:59,969 The Prophet, peace be upon him, addressed the people 50 00:03:59,969 --> 00:04:02,969 While wearing a dark ('dasma') head-wrap. 51 00:04:03,969 --> 00:04:11,060 This hadith indicates that the Prophet, peace be upon him, addressed the people 52 00:04:11,060 --> 00:04:13,060 While wearing a dark head-wrap. 53 00:04:13,060 --> 00:04:18,060 The 'isabah' is that which is wrapped around the head and tied. 54 00:04:18,060 --> 00:04:20,060 It is synonymous with the turban. 55 00:04:20,060 --> 00:04:23,060 His description of it as 'dasma' means black. 56 00:04:23,060 --> 00:04:28,060 It has also been said that its color was like the color of 'dasm', which is grease or oil. 57 00:04:28,060 --> 00:04:35,060 This is from the traces of the perfume that he, peace be upon him, used to apply to his head. 58 00:04:35,060 --> 00:04:38,240 A note of caution: 59 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:44,240 There is no authentic hadith from the Prophet, peace be upon him, regarding the specific virtue of wearing a turban. 60 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:51,240 Everything authentic regarding this topic is simply the fact that he, peace be upon him, wore one. 61 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,240 Is it said that wearing a turban is a Sunnah? 62 00:04:55,240 --> 00:05:00,240 The fundamental principle is that a person should wear the clothing of their own people, 63 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,240 And not distinguish themselves from them with anything, 64 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,240 Provided it does not violate the Shari'ah. 65 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,240 The Prophet, peace be upon him, wore the turban 66 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,240 Because it was the clothing of his people. 67 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,240 He wore it under a cap (qalansuwah), 68 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,240 And he wore the turban without a cap, 69 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,240 And he wore the cap without a turban. 70 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,269 Just as he, peace be upon him, 71 00:05:24,269 --> 00:05:28,269 Would sometimes let a tail hang from the turban, 72 00:05:28,269 --> 00:05:31,269 And at other times he would wear it without a tail, 73 00:05:31,269 --> 00:05:35,269 As explained by Imam Ibn al-Qayyim, may Allah have mercy on him. 74 00:05:35,269 --> 00:05:44,019 Chapter: What has been narrated regarding the description of the lower garment (izar) of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him. 75 00:05:44,019 --> 00:05:50,110 The izar is that which is wrapped around the lower part of the body. 76 00:05:50,110 --> 00:05:54,110 The rida' is that which is placed upon the shoulders, 77 00:05:54,110 --> 00:05:57,110 And with which the upper part of the body is covered. 78 00:05:57,110 --> 00:06:02,139 On the authority of Abu Burdah, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: 79 00:06:02,139 --> 00:06:07,139 'A'ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, brought out to us a patched cloak, 80 00:06:07,139 --> 00:06:10,139 And a coarse izar. 81 00:06:10,139 --> 00:06:16,139 She said: The soul of the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, was taken while he was wearing these. 82 00:06:16,139 --> 00:06:20,350 This hadith shows 83 00:06:20,350 --> 00:06:24,350 That 'A'ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, brought out to some of the Tabi'un 84 00:06:24,350 --> 00:06:26,350 A patched cloak. 85 00:06:26,350 --> 00:06:31,350 The cloak (kisa') is a piece of fabric that is not sewn, 86 00:06:31,350 --> 00:06:34,350 But rather remains in its original state. 87 00:06:34,350 --> 00:06:39,350 He, peace be upon him, used to cover the upper part of his body with it. 88 00:06:39,350 --> 00:06:42,350 'Mulabbad' means patched, 89 00:06:42,350 --> 00:06:45,350 Meaning it had become thick in the middle due to the abundance of patches, 90 00:06:45,350 --> 00:06:47,350 So it became heavy. 91 00:06:47,350 --> 00:06:50,420 Her statement, "and a coarse izar," 92 00:06:50,420 --> 00:06:53,420 Means a thick piece of fabric 93 00:06:53,420 --> 00:06:58,420 That he, peace be upon him, used to wrap around the lower part of his body. 94 00:06:58,420 --> 00:07:04,639 Her statement, "The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, was taken while wearing these," 95 00:07:04,639 --> 00:07:07,639 Means while wearing these two garments. 96 00:07:07,639 --> 00:07:09,639 She, may Allah be pleased with her, intended 97 00:07:09,639 --> 00:07:12,639 To show that these garments, 98 00:07:12,639 --> 00:07:15,639 Despite their coarseness and worn-out state, 99 00:07:15,639 --> 00:07:18,639 Were his clothing after the great conquests, 100 00:07:18,639 --> 00:07:21,639 And during the days of the fullness of his authority, 101 00:07:21,639 --> 00:07:24,639 And his dominion over most of the lands, 102 00:07:24,639 --> 00:07:26,639 And his overcoming of his enemies. 103 00:07:26,639 --> 00:07:30,639 For the time of his passing was a time of the strength of Islam, 104 00:07:30,639 --> 00:07:34,639 Yet he did not concern himself with the splendor of the world, 105 00:07:34,639 --> 00:07:38,819 Nor with its fleeting possessions. 106 00:07:38,819 --> 00:07:41,819 On the authority of al-Ash'ath ibn Sulaym, who said: 107 00:07:41,819 --> 00:07:45,819 I heard my aunt narrating from her uncle, who said: 108 00:07:45,819 --> 00:07:48,819 While I was walking in Madinah, 109 00:07:48,819 --> 00:07:51,819 Suddenly a man behind me said: 110 00:07:51,819 --> 00:07:56,819 "Raise your izar, for it is more pious and more lasting." 111 00:07:56,819 --> 00:08:00,819 Behold, it was the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him. 112 00:08:00,819 --> 00:08:03,819 I said: O Messenger of Allah, 113 00:08:03,819 --> 00:08:06,889 It is only a simple, striped garment. 114 00:08:06,889 --> 00:08:10,889 He said: "Is there not for you an example in me?" 115 00:08:10,889 --> 00:08:17,550 I looked, and his izar was at the middle of his shins. 116 00:08:17,550 --> 00:08:20,550 This hadith shows that the Companion, 117 00:08:21,550 --> 00:08:25,550 May Allah be pleased with him, was walking in Madinah, 118 00:08:25,550 --> 00:08:28,550 And the Prophet, peace be upon him, came to him 119 00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:31,550 And said to him: "Raise your izar," 120 00:08:31,550 --> 00:08:35,549 Because wearing an izar requires maintenance, 121 00:08:35,549 --> 00:08:39,549 For whenever a person walks, his izar loosens. 122 00:08:39,549 --> 00:08:43,549 Therefore, the Prophet, peace be upon him, commanded him 123 00:08:43,549 --> 00:08:46,549 To maintain it, justifying this 124 00:08:46,549 --> 00:08:48,549 By saying it is "more pious," 125 00:08:48,549 --> 00:08:51,549 Meaning between you and Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, 126 00:08:51,549 --> 00:08:54,549 By fulfilling His obedience. 127 00:08:54,549 --> 00:08:57,549 And "more lasting," meaning for your garment, 128 00:08:57,549 --> 00:08:59,549 Because if you raise it, it remains safe, 129 00:08:59,549 --> 00:09:02,549 And its duration of remaining with you is longer, 130 00:09:02,549 --> 00:09:05,549 Unlike if you let it hang low, 131 00:09:05,549 --> 00:09:08,549 For the ground affects it. 132 00:09:08,549 --> 00:09:10,549 It came in a narration: 133 00:09:10,549 --> 00:09:13,549 "For it is more lasting and cleaner," 134 00:09:13,549 --> 00:09:15,710 Meaning cleaner for the garment. 135 00:09:15,710 --> 00:09:19,710 The Companion said to the Prophet, peace be upon him: 136 00:09:19,710 --> 00:09:22,710 "It is only a simple, striped garment," 137 00:09:22,710 --> 00:09:25,710 Meaning that this garment I am wearing 138 00:09:25,710 --> 00:09:28,710 Has white mixed with black, 139 00:09:28,710 --> 00:09:30,710 And it is from the clothing of the Bedouins, 140 00:09:30,710 --> 00:09:33,710 Not from the luxurious garments. 141 00:09:33,710 --> 00:09:35,710 It is as if he wanted to say: 142 00:09:35,710 --> 00:09:38,710 This is a garment of no significance, 143 00:09:38,710 --> 00:09:41,710 And it is not worn in gatherings and assemblies, 144 00:09:41,710 --> 00:09:44,710 But rather it is a garment for work, 145 00:09:44,710 --> 00:09:46,779 Not a garment for adornment. 146 00:09:46,779 --> 00:09:49,779 And his statement, peace be upon him: 147 00:09:49,779 --> 00:09:51,779 "Is there not for you an example in me?" 148 00:09:51,779 --> 00:09:54,779 Meaning an example to follow and emulate. 149 00:09:54,779 --> 00:10:00,779 The meaning is that one who is keen to follow the example of the Prophet, peace be upon him, 150 00:10:00,779 --> 00:10:02,779 Shortens his garments, 151 00:10:02,779 --> 00:10:06,779 Even if he does not have the intention of preserving his garment, 152 00:10:06,779 --> 00:10:10,779 Or if there is no pride or arrogance in his heart, 153 00:10:10,779 --> 00:10:12,779 Which is expected in the act of letting one's garment drag (isbal). 154 00:10:12,779 --> 00:10:16,779 Because merely following the example of the Prophet, peace be upon him, 155 00:10:16,779 --> 00:10:20,779 Requires a person to raise his garments. 156 00:10:20,779 --> 00:10:26,779 Therefore, when the Companion looked at the izar of the Prophet, peace be upon him, 157 00:10:26,779 --> 00:10:29,779 He saw it at the middle of his shins. 158 00:10:29,779 --> 00:10:32,059 Similar to this 159 00:10:32,059 --> 00:10:38,059 Is what was narrated that the Commander of the Believers, 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, on the day he was stabbed, 160 00:10:38,059 --> 00:10:42,100 People came to bid him farewell and praise him. 161 00:10:42,100 --> 00:10:44,100 A young man came to him 162 00:10:44,100 --> 00:10:49,100 And said: "Rejoice, O Commander of the Believers, with the good news from Allah for you, 163 00:10:49,100 --> 00:10:53,100 Because of your companionship with the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, 164 00:10:53,100 --> 00:10:57,100 And your precedence in Islam, which you know, 165 00:10:57,100 --> 00:10:59,100 Then you ruled and acted justly, 166 00:10:59,100 --> 00:11:01,100 Then martyrdom." 167 00:11:01,100 --> 00:11:03,100 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, said: 168 00:11:03,100 --> 00:11:08,100 "I wish that it is a wash—neither for me nor against me." 169 00:11:08,100 --> 00:11:10,190 When the young man turned away, 170 00:11:10,190 --> 00:11:13,190 His izar was touching the ground. 171 00:11:13,190 --> 00:11:16,190 He said: "Bring the boy back to me." 172 00:11:16,190 --> 00:11:18,190 He said to him: 173 00:11:18,190 --> 00:11:19,190 "O son of my brother, 174 00:11:19,190 --> 00:11:21,190 Raise your garment, 175 00:11:21,190 --> 00:11:24,190 For it is more lasting for your garment, 176 00:11:24,190 --> 00:11:26,190 And more pious before your Lord." 177 00:11:26,190 --> 00:11:29,289 Also similar to this situation 178 00:11:29,289 --> 00:11:32,289 Is that of 'Abd Allah ibn 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, 179 00:11:32,289 --> 00:11:34,289 Where he said: 180 00:11:34,289 --> 00:11:38,289 I entered upon the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, 181 00:11:38,289 --> 00:11:41,289 While my izar was making a rattling sound, 182 00:11:41,289 --> 00:11:44,289 Meaning it was rustling and moving. 183 00:11:44,289 --> 00:11:46,289 He said: "Who is this?" 184 00:11:46,289 --> 00:11:49,289 I said: 'Abd Allah. 185 00:11:49,289 --> 00:11:52,289 He said: "If you are 'Abd Allah (a servant of Allah), 186 00:11:52,289 --> 00:11:54,289 Then raise your izar." 187 00:11:54,289 --> 00:11:56,419 Ibn 'Umar said: 188 00:11:56,419 --> 00:11:59,419 So I raised my izar to the middle of my shins, 189 00:11:59,419 --> 00:12:04,919 And it remained that way until I died. 190 00:12:04,919 --> 00:12:08,919 On the authority of Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman, may Allah be pleased with them both, who said: 191 00:12:08,919 --> 00:12:11,919 The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, 192 00:12:11,919 --> 00:12:14,919 Took hold of the calf of my leg, 193 00:12:14,919 --> 00:12:16,919 And said: 194 00:12:16,919 --> 00:12:18,919 "This is the place for the izar. 195 00:12:18,919 --> 00:12:21,919 If you refuse, then lower. 196 00:12:21,919 --> 00:12:23,919 If you refuse, 197 00:12:23,919 --> 00:12:26,919 Then there is no right for the izar in the ankles." 198 00:12:26,919 --> 00:12:29,980 This hadith shows 199 00:12:29,980 --> 00:12:32,980 The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 200 00:12:32,980 --> 00:12:37,980 grasped the calf or the leg of Hudhayfah, may Allah be pleased with him. 201 00:12:37,980 --> 00:12:39,980 The narrator mentioned, 202 00:12:39,980 --> 00:12:40,980 and he said, 203 00:12:40,980 --> 00:12:42,980 "This is the place for the lower garment (izar)." 204 00:12:42,980 --> 00:12:44,980 The calf muscle 205 00:12:44,980 --> 00:12:47,980 is the firm flesh behind the lower leg. 206 00:12:47,980 --> 00:12:50,980 Thus, the believer’s lower garment should reach the middle of his calf, 207 00:12:50,980 --> 00:12:52,980 or the calf muscle. 208 00:12:52,980 --> 00:12:55,139 As for his saying, "If you refuse," 209 00:12:55,139 --> 00:12:58,139 meaning if you refrain from taking the more resolute path 210 00:12:58,139 --> 00:13:01,139 of raising the garment to the middle of the calf, 211 00:13:01,139 --> 00:13:04,139 then you have a concession to lower it beyond that point, 212 00:13:04,139 --> 00:13:08,139 provided that your garment does not reach the ankles, 213 00:13:08,139 --> 00:13:13,139 for the garment has no right to reach the ankles. 214 00:13:13,139 --> 00:13:15,139 This is why he said, 215 00:13:15,139 --> 00:13:16,139 "If you refuse," 216 00:13:16,139 --> 00:13:20,139 for the garment has no right to reach the ankles. 217 00:13:20,139 --> 00:13:23,320 A benefit: 218 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,379 When a Muslim knows that our Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, 219 00:13:27,379 --> 00:13:30,379 has had many authentic hadiths reported from him 220 00:13:30,379 --> 00:13:33,379 warning against letting one's garment hang below the ankles (isbal), 221 00:13:33,379 --> 00:13:36,379 such as his saying, peace be upon him, 222 00:13:36,379 --> 00:13:40,379 "Whatever part of the lower garment hangs below the ankles is in the Fire." 223 00:13:40,379 --> 00:13:43,379 And his saying, peace be upon him, 224 00:13:43,379 --> 00:13:47,379 "There are three whom Allah will not speak to on the Day of Resurrection, 225 00:13:47,379 --> 00:13:51,379 nor will He look at them, nor will He purify them, 226 00:13:51,379 --> 00:13:53,379 and they shall have a painful punishment: 227 00:13:53,379 --> 00:13:56,379 the one who lets his garment hang low, the one who reminds others of his favors, 228 00:13:56,379 --> 00:14:00,379 and the one who sells his merchandise by means of false oaths." 229 00:14:00,379 --> 00:14:04,669 So how can one be content with this severe threat, 230 00:14:04,669 --> 00:14:08,669 which indicates that letting the garment hang low is among the major sins? 231 00:14:08,669 --> 00:14:10,929 The scholars have said 232 00:14:10,929 --> 00:14:13,929 that whatever clothing hangs below the ankles 233 00:14:13,929 --> 00:14:16,929 is prohibited with an absolute prohibition, 234 00:14:16,929 --> 00:14:20,929 whether it is done out of arrogance or not, 235 00:14:20,929 --> 00:14:24,929 though it is more strictly prohibited if done out of arrogance. 236 00:14:24,929 --> 00:14:26,929 It is regrettable 237 00:14:26,929 --> 00:14:28,929 that some foolish youth, 238 00:14:28,929 --> 00:14:32,929 when they used to see someone wearing a garment reaching the middle of his calves, 239 00:14:32,929 --> 00:14:34,929 would mock him. 240 00:14:34,929 --> 00:14:37,929 Then, after a while, when they saw Westerners 241 00:14:37,929 --> 00:14:40,929 wearing trousers up to the knee, 242 00:14:40,929 --> 00:14:42,929 they imitated them, 243 00:14:42,929 --> 00:14:46,929 and went out into the streets in trousers reaching the knee. 244 00:14:46,929 --> 00:14:50,929 This indicates a disease in the hearts of those youth, 245 00:14:50,929 --> 00:14:51,929 as they turned away from, 246 00:14:51,929 --> 00:14:55,929 and even mocked, the guidance of the Prophet, peace be upon him, 247 00:14:55,929 --> 00:14:57,929 which is the best of guidance, 248 00:14:57,929 --> 00:15:02,929 and turned toward the falsehood that came from their enemies. 249 00:15:02,929 --> 00:15:03,929 This ruling, 250 00:15:03,929 --> 00:15:06,929 meaning raising the garment to the middle of the calf, 251 00:15:06,929 --> 00:15:09,929 is specific to men, not women. 252 00:15:09,929 --> 00:15:12,960 For when the Prophet, peace be upon him, 253 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:13,960 said, 254 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,960 "Whoever drags his garment out of arrogance, 255 00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,960 Allah will not look at him on the Day of Resurrection," 256 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,960 Umm Salamah, may Allah be pleased with her, asked, 257 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,960 "What should women do with their hems?" 258 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,960 He said, "They should lower them by a span." 259 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:31,960 She said, 260 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,960 "Then their feet will be uncovered." 261 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,960 He said, "Then they should lower them by a forearm's length, 262 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,960 but no more." 263 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:45,090 The forearm is measured from the elbow to the fingertips. 264 00:15:45,090 --> 00:15:47,090 Thus, the woman is commanded to cover herself, 265 00:15:47,090 --> 00:15:50,090 which is considered a means of protecting her, 266 00:15:50,090 --> 00:15:54,090 and guarding her against sinful and misguided gazes. 267 00:15:54,090 --> 00:15:58,120 Therefore, she was commanded to lower her garment in this manner. 268 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:02,120 Even if the garment might be exposed to some dirt, 269 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:07,120 the benefit of covering her feet is greater and more significant. 270 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:11,720 The hadith has more to follow, if Allah wills. 271 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,720 And Allah knows best. 272 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,720 May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad, 273 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:20,720 and upon all his family and companions.
