The Shaykh : The stitching will be explained to us, if Allah wills. The stitching referred to here is the usual covering, not that which is done by a tailor.

It has been said that the first person to speak of it was Ibrahim al-Nakha'i (may Allah have mercy on him), who was one of the jurists of the Tabi'un.
