The Special Honors Related to the Clothing of That Noble One (a.s.)

احترامات خاصه متعلق به لباس آن حضرت

احترام خاصي كه متعلق است به لباس آن جناب، بدانكه خداوند منان حسنين (عليه‌السلام) را مخصوص نمود به اينكه چندين مرتبه از بهشت به جهت ايشان لباس هديه فرستاد، و اختلاف رنگ آن لباسها كه يكي سرخ و ديگري سبز بود معروف، و سر آن واضح است. [477] .و حسين (عليه‌السلام) مخصوص گرديد علاوه بر آن به لباس مخصوصي، چنانكه ام‌سلمه روايت نموده كه ديدم پيغمبر (صلي الله عليه و آله) مي‌پوشانيد به قامت حسين (عليه‌السلام) لباسي را كه مانند آن را نديده بودم و شباهت به لباس دنيا نداشت، عرض كردم: اين چيست؟ فرمود: اين هديه‌اي است كه خداوند از براي حسين فرستاده است كه پود آن از پرهاي نازك بال جبرئيل است [478] و بعد از شهادت و عاري كردن بدنش از لباس، خداوند به او پوشانيد خلعتهاي بهشت به دست ملائكه چنانكه تفصيلش بيايد (انشاء الله).

The Special Honors Related to the Clothing of That Noble One (a.s.)

The special honor related to the clothing of that noble one (a.s.) is as follows:

Know that Allah, the Bestower of Bounties, granted a special distinction to al-Hasan and al Husain (a.s.) in that on several occasions He sent garments from Paradise as gifts for them. The difference in the colors of those garments—one being red and the other green—is well known, and the wisdom behind it is clear. [477]

Imam Husain (a.s.) was granted, in addition to that, a special garment. As Umm Salamah narrated:

“I saw the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) clothing Imam Husain (a.s.) with a garment the like of which I had never seen before, and it did not resemble the garments of this world. I asked, ‘What is this?’ He replied:

‘This is a gift that Allah has sent for Imam Husain (a.s.), and its fabric is woven from the delicate feathers of the wings of Jibrāʾīl (a.s.).’” [478]

Then, after his martyrdom and after his body had been stripped of its clothing, Allah clothed him with the robes of Paradise through the hands of the angels, as its details will be mentioned later, Allah willing.
