Praying with a Single Garment

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was seen praying in a single garment, wrapping himself in it and throwing the ends over his shoulders.

It was narrated that 'Umar bin Abu Salamah said: "I saw the Messenger of Allah performing prayer in a single garment, wrapping himself in it and throwing the ends over his shoulders".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ـ يُصَلِّي فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ مُتَوَشِّحًا بِهِ وَاضِعًا طَرَفَيْهِ عَلَى عَاتِقَيْهِ

QUICK LESSONS:
Dress modestly when praying , Focus on prayer instead of worrying about clothing or appearance , Have faith in God .

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by 'Umar bin Abu Salamah tells us that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to pray wearing only one garment. He would wrap himself in it and throw the ends over his shoulders. This teaches us that when we pray, we should dress modestly and not show off our clothing or jewelry. We should also focus on our prayer rather than worrying about what we are wearing or how we look. It is important to remember that prayer is an act of worship between us and Allah, so it should be done with humility and sincerity.

The Prophet Muhammad's example of praying with a single garment also shows us that material possessions are not necessary for worshiping Allah; all we need is faith and devotion to Him. We can learn from this hadith that even if we don't have much money or fancy clothes, our prayers will still be accepted by Allah as long as they come from the heart.
