The Jubbah

Yes, the Jubbah is Sunnah.

Jubbah refers to a long outer garment which is open in front and generally worn over other garments. Rasulullaah Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam generally wore the Jubbah on Fridays, and when welcoming groups, envoys and delegations.i From the books of Hadeeth, we come to know that Rasulullaah Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam, Sahaabah Radiallahu Anhum, and many Ambiyaa Alayhimus Salaam donned the Jubbah.

Hadhrat Mugheerah Bin Shu’bah Radiallahu Anhu says that Rasulullaah Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam went to relieve himself. When he returned, I brought water for him, so he made Wudhu and he was wearing a Shaami Jubbah……

Hadhrat Ibn Abbaas Radiallahu Anhu narrates that Rasulullaah  Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam said: It is as if I am looking at
Yunus Ibn Matta Alayhi Assalaam on a red camel, wearing a woollen Jubbah.

Hadhrat Ibn Masood Radiallahu Anhu narrates that Rasulullaah Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam said: Moosa Alayhi Assallam wore a woollen shawl and a woollen Jubbah on the day he spoke to Allaah.
