I think I'm gonna get an assortment of cloaks, cassocks, thobes and hoods for reasons? I am gonna be wearing these cloaks for no reason, though. Why not?

Okay: why can't Saudi Arabia handle this by itself, since it was sold all those F-15s and other instruments of death by the US military industrial complex. Study the photos coming out of Yemen: the Saudis are getting their butts kicked by guys in thobes and sandals. It's called incompetence.

Bloomberg reports that Saudi Aramco has informed at least two European refining customers that they will receive no Saudi crude in October, following an Ansarallah attack and subsequent shutdown of the East-West pipeline, which transports Saudi oil to the Red Sea port of Yanbu. (The Cradle)

There has to be a correlation between the (illegal?) car-and-drifting culture in many countries in the Middle East and that of Northern Nigeria

Men in thobes buying and racing souped-up cars on roads and in deserts vs men in kaftans buying and stunting souped-up cars on roads and open public spaces

meme featuring a photo of Donald Trump in a suit and red tie standing on an airport tarmac next to two Qatari officials in traditional thobes and ghutras, with a private jet behind them. Top text reads: "FROM THE PEOPLE WHO BROUGHT YOU 9/11". Bottom text reads: "NEVER FORGET... UNLESS THEY BUY YOU A SWEET ASS JET".

Mr Nice Hair wouldn’t listen to flag officers with decades of experience.
Why would he? His boss is “smarter than all my generals”
Iranian officials must be laughing in their thobes.

Sliman Mansour, who passed away on 24 August 2026, was a Palestinian artist who vividly and vibrantly captured the souls of Palestine. He depicted the bond between Palestinian identity and the land and the concept of Sumud: "steadfastness" that doesn't stop at survivorship, but also resistance. 🧵1/4
A 2014 painting titled Orange Harvest, depicting two Palestinian women in white and black thobes with intricate, colorful embroideries on the chest panels and hems. One woman holds an orange basket and the other kneels with her hands raised. They stand between rows of orange trees harvested by smaller Palestinian women. Behind them is the sea. The Village Awakens, a 1978 painting that depicts Palestinian villagers walk in line holding farming and sculpting equipment. Behind them are village buildings, image of a boatman, farmers harvesting crops and olives, and a giant woman holding a vase and wearing an embroidered thobe and white headscarf. In the front are images of women harvesting olives and oranges and a sculptor working on several blocks of stones. A 1976 painting titled Motherhood depicting a surreal view of a barren landscape. A giant Palestinian woman sits with one breast bare, feeding her baby. She is skeletal, sitting with her head bowed, and she holds a firearm while her baby looks healthy. Holy Family, a 2013 painting depicting Joseph, Mary, and Jesus in traditional Palestinian thobes, white headscarves for Joseph and Mary, yellow robe and white thobe for Joseph and red thobe with embroidered chest panel for Mary, and white and orange robes with keffiyeh scarf for child Jesus. Child Jesus pointed two fingers upward. The three of them have halos around their heads.

early april was when the al mawasi elders led the protest to demand the desalination plant finally be repaired—it had been broken for so long, and the many, many people who relied on it were suffering immensely

photo credit: Muhannad Qashta An older man with a brown, weatherbeaten face and a stark white beard, wearing a khaki scarf over his head, holds up a sign printed in arabic on 8.5x11 paper against a cloudless blue sky; he's standing in the middle of a group of men, a few of whom are also holding signs. per mohamed, this man's sign says: ارحموا عطش الناس Have mercy on the thirst of the people Photo credit: Muhannad Qashta a group of about six men and boys of varying ages stand in concentric semi-circles, the boys holding their handprinted signs in front of their faces. the older man with the white beard from the top photo is here too, on the far right; now he holds his sign in his right hand, while with his left he makes a peace sign and smiles. Per Mohamed, some of these signs read: نريد ما للاستخدام الادمى نرفض ان يتم استخدام العطش الى باب للربح والاستغلال We want what is used for human consumption; we refuse to allow thirst to be exploited for profit and exploitation. Photo credit: Muhannad Qashta Here, five men stand in the front of a crowd of other men, photographed from the ground so they look imposing. Some are dressed in more traditional thobes; others in jeans and shirts or hoodies. The older man with the white beard is on the far left; then a younger, bald black man; then a younger, brown-skinned man with a few days' growth of dark brown beard; then a middle-aged man with a salt-and-pepper goatee; then an older man with short white hair and glasses. Per Mohamed, some of their signs say: الماء اساس الحياة انقذوا حياة وصحة اطفالنا Water is the basis of life. Save the lives and health of our children.

They mentioned a girl but I see only burkas. Why wouldn't dudes wear turban, pointly slippers, shalwar pants, sleeveless jackets? Or maybe thobes and huge beards and kufiyeh (that ancient Judeans wore too btw)? Why is that only women are forced to dress like some Ikhwan's terror poster?

There are dudes in france wearing what I can only describe as thobes made from synthetic moisture wicking material and I wonder if Muslim women view them as a type of athletic polo guy

i was thinking more about kaftans and thobes that are a lil more flowy and elegant but modest! i do like pakistani dresses too but i know dalmasca leans more towards cultures in the levant!

🔴 On July 31, Modest Souq announced a UK-wide line of luxury abayas, thobes and Islamic clothing. The garments are familiar. The pitch is new: sell traditional dress at premium prices, then call the customer “modern Muslim” fashion.

the ideal fashion and indeed the only fashion we should all adopt as our eternal human uniform is from the Arabs. Thobes. Long hooded robes of wool and leather and cotton and linen and lawn. With hoods and capes and turbans. So great for summer and winter alike. Aaaaaa I wish

I love when the answer to a question I've had for a while shows up! I'd been wondering about the really long sleeves on thobes and the overall construction of these garments

YAY! These are gorgeous.
