The reader: Qutaybah ibn Sa'id narrated to us, saying: Al-Layth narrated to us from Ibn Abi Malikah from al-Miswar ibn Makhramah, that he said: Sahih al-Bukhari 2599.

The questioner : ... .
The questioner : And the one before it, O Shaykh ... .

This contains evidence for the permissibility of wearing the qaba', and the qaba' is something similar to an open-fronted tunic, and it may also be open at the back. It is also generally the case that it has some silk on its edges, meaning on its fringes, which are its openings. For this reason, it passed us in fiqh regarding what is permissible of silk: what are the "sujuk"?
The questioner : The "fara".
The Shaykh : The "fara". So there is nothing wrong with wearing this qaba', but it is obligatory that the person have a garment underneath it to cover his 'awrah, because the qaba' is open.
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) distributed some cloaks but did not give anything thereof to Makhrama. Makhrama said (to me), "O son! accompany me to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)." When I went with him, he said, "Call him to me." I called him (i.e. the Prophet (ﷺ) ) for my father. He came out wearing one of those cloaks and said, "We kept this (cloak) for you, (Makhrama)." Makhrama looked at the cloak and said, "Makhrama is pleased,"
