Commentary
1. The method adopted by Imām An-Nasā'ī in the divisions of chapter demonstrates that he considers the afore-mentioned armor separate from the dower, and holds it to be a special gift, while according to many people of knowledge, it was the dower which was given at the time of the couple living together instead of the time when the marriage was agreed. And Allāh knows best!
2. Hutamiyyah armor: Hutamiyyah probably might allude to its manufacturer or perhaps to its characteristics, which means the breaker of swords, spears, and arrows.
