Abu Umama reported: Umar ibn al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, put on a new garment and said, “Praise belongs to Allah, who clothed me with what covers my nakedness and makes me presentable in my life.” Then he said, “I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Whoever puts on a new garment, praises Allah for clothing him with what covers his nakedness and makes him presentable, then gives the worn-out garment in charity, will remain in the care, protection, and covering of Allah, alive and dead.” Ahmad, al-Tirmidhi, and Ibn Majah transmitted it. Al-Tirmidhi said, “This is a rare hadith.”
