[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was brought a garment with a small tear in it. He asked, "Who will mend this?". The people remained silent, so he said, "Bring me Umm Khalid". She came to me and I handed her the garment. He took the garment in his hand and clothed me with it. He said, "Dye it and fashion it for me. Dye it and fashion it for me." She said, "There was a green or yellow mark on it." He said, "O Umm Khalid, this is its right and it was dyed with habashiya."

The Prophet ﷺ was given some clothes including a black Khamisa. The Prophet ﷺ said, "To whom shall we give this to wear?" The people kept silent whereupon the Prophet ﷺ said, "Fetch Um Khalid for me." I (Um Khalid) was brought carried (as I was small girl at that time). The Prophet ﷺ took the Khamisa in his hands and made me wear it and said, "May you live so long that your dress will wear out and you will mend it many times." On the Khamisa there were some green or pale designs (The Prophet ﷺ saw these designs) and said, "O Um Khalid! This is Sanah." (Sanah in a Ethiopian word meaning beautiful).

Some clothes were presented to Messenger of Allah ﷺ as a gift and there was a black Khamisa with it. The Prophet asked (his companions), "To whom do you suggest we give this Khamisa?" The people kept quiet. Then he said, "Bring me Um Khalid," So I was brought to him and he dressed me with it with his own hands and said twice, "May you live so long that you will wear out many garments." He then started looking at the embroidery of that Khamisa and said, "O Um Khalid! This is Sana!" (Sana in Ethiopian language means beautiful.) 'Is-haq, a sub-narrator, said: A woman of my family had told me that she had seen the Khamisa worn by Um Khalid.

Once the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was brought some garments among which was a small cloak with a border and black stripes. He said: Whom do you think to be more deserving for it ? The people kept silence. He said: Bring Umm Khalid. The she was carried to him and he put it on her, saying: Wear it out and make it ragged twice.

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came with a garment that had a shirt in it. He asked his companions, "Who do you think deserves this shirt?" They remained silent. He called Umm Khalid and dressed her in it. Then he said, "Spin, O young girl, and beautify yourself." He repeated this three times. There was a red mark on it, so he turned to Umm Khalid and said, "Sana." Sana means beautiful in the Abyssinian language.

[Machine] Abu narrated to me that Umm Khalid bint Khalid said, "The Prophet ﷺ was brought garments with a small black shirt in them. He asked, 'Who would dress this?' The people remained silent, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Bring Umm Khalid to me.' She was then brought to him, and he dressed me with it using his own hands while saying, 'Adorn yourself and be beautiful.' He said this twice while looking at a mark on the shirt that had yellow and red colors, and he said, 'O Umm Khalid, this is good fortune in the tongue of Abyssinia.'"
