Abli wa akhliqi

Translation

May you live so long that your dress gets worn out.

Umm Khalid (RA), daughter of Khalid Ibn Sayed (RA), said, 'A garment was brought to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), with a black design on it. Then he said, "Who can we wear this dress?" When the Companions were silent, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Bring Umm Khalid." Then when I was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ), he put the garment on me with his own hands. Then he said twice- (The dua is mentioned above) This is what happened when Umme Khalid emigrated from Ethiopia to Medina with her father, when she was very young.
