When he put on a new dress, he would thank ALLAH in the following words mentioning the name of the dress.
O Allaah ! all praises are due to thee: As You have clothed me, I ask Thee to grant me its benefit and benefit of what it is made for. I seek refuge with thee from its evil and the evil of what it is made for. Sometimes he prayed as follows:
All praise is due to ALLAH who has clothed me with something with which to cover my nakedness and adorn myself in my lifetime. When anyone visited him wearing new clothes, he would appreciate it saying
Very nice, very nice, and then say: Whenever he put on new clothes he would say:
Praise be to ALLAAH who has given us this to wear or any other phrase and say two rak’ahs in thanks giving. He would give away the old clothes to any destitute person.
