Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the hadith of Anas, it is mentioned that his mount was prepared for him and he put on his travel clothes. Does this mean that it is a recommended practice (sunnah) to choose special clothing for the sake of travel?
Answer:
This falls under the category of customs. It is a matter of custom, not a recommended practice (sunnah), because there is no specific sunnah regarding special clothes for travel. However, as a custom, you are not going to adorn yourself and wear your festival clothes for the sake of travel.
