Fly the Flag

"... Distinction. The Prophet (SAWS) placed a good degree of emphasis throughout the Hadith on the Muslims being distinct in their dress and habits from other people in their community..."

"... This is for a sense of identity..."

"... People should be able to look at you and say, 'Wow, and that's a Muslim'..."

(Source: 'Shamail of Imam Tirmidhi (RA)' audio series by Shaykh Husain Abdul Sattar)

Taken from 8-14 minutes of the talk on the 'Hair of the Prophet (SAWS)'. But we're not just talking about hair here.
