What kinds of clothing did the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, prefer?
The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, would wear whatever was readily available from the common garments of his people. Ibn al-Qayyim compiles that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, would wear a turban, a cap, a Qamis (tunic) - which was his favorite garment - a Jubbah (cloak), a Farrooj (a type of cloak), a Farajiyyah (a long, wide garment), an Izar (waist wrapper), a Rida' (upper garment), a red Hullah (suit), a Khamisah (a striped garment), and he wore a black garment, a fur cloak lined with silk brocade, trousers, Khuffain (leather socks), sandals, a ring, a helmet, and a shield. He had two green cloaks, a black cloak, a red felted cloak, and a hair cloak. His Qamis was made of cotton, short in length and sleeves. His favorite color was white. Most of what he and his Companions wore was woven from cotton, and they sometimes wore wool and linen.
