Re-explaining the interpretation of the "ash-shama' shawl."

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. He said, may Allah have mercy on him: The Chapter on the Black Shawl.

The Shaykh : Have you reviewed the "ash-shama' shawl"?
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : Yes, but you reviewed it, yet we interpreted it, and Al-Fath interpreted it with a different interpretation. We interpreted it as the person wrapping himself in the garment so that there are no openings, and we said this is the aspect of it being "deaf." The author of Al-Fath interpreted it as wearing the garment on one side of the body, with no other garment on the other side, as the jurists stated that it is to wrap oneself in a garment with nothing else on top of it. The first meaning is clearer in terms of etymology, but it is strange that the author did not mention it. If you had mentioned it, or I said, if you had reviewed it, but perhaps you forgot.
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : And I think Ibn Daqiq al-Eid spoke about it in his commentary on Al-Umdah. I think he spoke about it in his commentary on Al-Umdah. Yes.
The student: I say it was mentioned earlier in the Book of Prayer.

The Shaykh : It is possible it was mentioned earlier, what?
The student: The Book of What Covers the 'Awrah.

The Shaykh : Where is that?
The student: ... .

The Shaykh : Very well.
