The Blessings of Charity and Gratitude

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of giving charity and thanking Allah for providing us with clothing.

Abu Umamah narrated: That 'Umar bin Al-Khattab may Allah be pleased with him wore a new garment and said: "All praise is due to Allah who clothed me with what I may cover my 'Awrah, and what I may beautify myself with in my life (Al-ḥamdulillah, alladhi kasani ma uwari bihi 'awrati, wa atajammalu bihi fi ḥayati)". Then he said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah saying: 'Whoever wears a new garment and then says: "Allah praise is due to Allah who clothed me with what I may cover my 'Awrah and what I may beautify myself with in my life (Al-ḥamdulillah, alladhi kasani ma uwari bihi 'awrati, wa atajammalu bihi fi ḥayati)" and then he takes the garment that has worn out and gives it in charity, he shall be under Allah’s guard, Allah’s protection, and Allah’s covering, alive and dead.’"
