Umama Shareef of Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH)

            Holy prophet s.a.w.w always used a Umama shareef  in every prayers.

           1. Imam Muslim and Imam Tirmidhi رحمهما الله narrate on the authority of Jabir Ibn Abdillah رضي الله عنهما who said:

أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم دخل يوم فتح مكة وعليه عمامة سوداء

“The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم entered Makkah on the day He conquered it, and he was wearing a black turban.”

2. Imam Muslim رحمه الله narrates on the authority of ‘Amr Ibn Huraith that his father said:

أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم خطب الناس وعليه عمامة سوداء

“The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم delivered the (farewell) sermon while wearing a black turban.”

3. Imam Abu Dawud and Imam Tirmidhi رحمهما الله narrate on the authority of Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri رضي الله عنه who said:

كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا استجد ثوبا سماه باسمه عمامة أو قميصا أو رداء ثم يقول اللهم لك الحمد أن كسوتنيه أسألك خيره وخير ما صنع له وأعوذ بك من شره وشر ما صنع له

“Whenever the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم would wear a new garment, He would give it a name; whether it was a Qamis, turban or a shawl. Then He would say: `O Allah! For You is the Praise, You have clothed me, I ask You for its good and the good for which it was made, and I seek refuge in You from its evil and the evil for which it was made”

4. Imam Tirmidhi رحمه الله narrates on the authority of Abdullah Ibn Umar رضي الله عنهما who said:

كان النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا اعتم سدل عمامته بين كتفيه

“When the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم wore a turban, He would let the tail hang between His shoulder blades.”

The vast majority of ‘Ulama agree that from among the Prophet’s favoured clothing is the turban.
