Islam has set up all aspects of life ranging from the smallest to the largest, including in dress.
But there are some misconceptions about how to dress, some groups say that the abaya is mandatory for Muslim clothes and a sign of love for the Prophet.
If you do not wear the robe (gamis) automated identity as Muslims questioned. Is that right?
Actually, all of the two main reference ie the Qur'an and Hadith. And this time will discuss the clothing tradition of the robe, the following hadith.
From Umm Salamah Allaah 'anha, said: "Clothes are beloved by the Prophet s.a.w. is the gamis"
Priests Reported by Abu Dawud and Termidzi and he said that this is a hasan hadith.
The hadith concerning exposure wife of the Prophet, namely Umm Salamah ra. Yang said that the clothing is the most beloved apostle shirt.
If according to the hadith consists of four types namely qauli traditions, traditions fi'li, Taqrir and hammi.
The above Hadith is the Hadith fi'li namely the nature and actions of the Prophet, usually hadith narrated by the companions fi'li that meaning that mauquf, but not all of them because there are some who marfu. God willing, will be discussed in a future article.
Umm Salamah ra. Explain that the clothes were the favorites is the robe (gamis), there is no previous information (hadis) that the Prophet said directly that the robe is obligatory.
Therefore, any other clothing should be worn during meet its mandatory law that is close the genitals, not made of silk for men and moderation.
As for the robe if happy be wearing if you do not like it then there is no compulsion. For people who wear the abaya and thus obliged to mention that case it is better asked in advance.
What is the reason? And what is their argument? Of course, their argument must also come from a history that is authentic or hasan and people who make the laws should not be arbitrary. Because the rules of jurisprudence can not be done by anyone and can only be done by consensus of the scholars knowledgeable and devoted.
