[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took my hand and gave me a piece of cloth, then he said, "Cut it into two halves and give one half to your wife so she can wear it to consecrate herself." When I turned to leave, he said, "Tell your wife not to place a garment under her split cloth."

أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قِبَاطِي فَأَعْطَانِي قُبْطِيَّةً فَقَالَ «اصْدَعْهَا صَدْعَتَيْنِ فَاقْطَعْ أَحَدَهُمَا قَمِيصًا وأَعْطِ الْآخَرَ امْرَأَتَكَ لِتَخْتَمِرَ بِهَا» فَلَمَّا أَدْبَرَتُ قَالَ «مُرِ امْرَأَتَكَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ تَحْتَ صَدْعَتِهَا ثَوْبًا لَا تَصِفُهَا»
