Asma bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated: She brought out to me a Kisrawaniyya Tayalisa cloak with a silk brocade collar and its two openings hemmed 2 with brocade, and said: This belonged to Aisha until she passed away. When she passed away, I took possession of it. The Prophet (ﷺ) used to wear it, and we wash it for the sick, seeking healing with it.
