The History and Significance of the Men’s Qamis

The qamis, also known as kandoura, djellaba, or gandoura, is a long, loose tunic worn by men in many Muslim regions. Designed to cover the body’s shape and maintain modesty, it is particularly suited for prayer and religious observance.

The qamis is both an Islamic and traditional outfit, reflecting elegance and simplicity. It is reported in a hadith that:

"The garment that the Prophet (ﷺ) loved the most was the Qamis." (Tirmidhi)

Besides its religious significance, the qamis is a cultural staple that varies by country and region.
