Abu Al-Ahwas narrated from his father: I came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) wearing a lowly garment, and he said: Do you have wealth? I said: Yes. He said: What kind of wealth? I said: From all kinds of wealth; Allah has given me camels, cattle, sheep, horses, and slaves. He said: If Allah has given you wealth, let the trace of Allah’s blessing 1 and honor be seen on you.

(1) The statement: let the trace of Allah’s blessing and honor be seen on you: In Sharh As-Sunnah: This refers to improving clothes by cleaning and renewing them when possible, without exaggerating in softness and fineness or imitating the non-Arabs’ style of clothing. So it is in Al-Marqah.
