One piece was a shirt, which in its length reached above his ankles, a loincloth, which in length reached to the middle of his leg, a gown that reached in his front side up to his breast and from the back down to his rump. He (’Amir al-Mu’minin) then raised his hand to the sky and continued praising Allah for providing him clothes until he (’Amir al-Mu’minin) reached his home and said, “This is the kind of clothes that is proper for the Muslims.’” Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), then said, ‘However, today they (Muslims) are not able to wear that kind of clothes, and if we do so they will say, “They have become insane and show off.” Allah, most Blessed, most High, says, “. . . and cleanse your clothes” meaning do not allow your clothes to be dragged on the ground. When our al-Q’a’im will rise this (the kind of clothes which ’Amir al- Mu’minin (a.s.), would wear) will be kind of his clothes.’”
