Source & Authentication

Narrated Abu Sa'id al-Khudri: When Allah's Messenger ﷺ wore a new garment, he would mention its name, whether it was a shirt or a turban, and then say: 'Alhamdulillah alladhi kafani wa 'azazani' (All praise is due to Allah, who sufficed me and honored me). And when he wore a garment to wear and said: 'Alhamdulillah alladhi kasani hadha ath-thawba wa razaqanihi min ghayri hawlin minni wa la quwwatin' (All praise is due to Allah, who clothed me in this garment and provided it to me without any strength or power from my side).
