Some of the Prophet's Companions talked about the luxuries of the worldly life. So he said to them: "Will you not listen", in order to urge them to listen to what he was going to say, and repeated this to emphasize its importance. Then he told them that observing modesty in one's clothes and adornment is a manner of the people of faith, and that faith is what motivates a person to be modest.Categories
