اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الحَمدُ أَنتَ كَسَوتَنِيهِ، أَسأَلُكَ مِن خَيرِهِ وَخَيرِ مَا صُنِعَ لَهُ، وَأَعُوذُ بِكَ مِن شَرِّهِ وَشَرِّ مَا صُنِعَ لَهُ

Pronunciation

Allahumma lakal-hamdu anta kasawtaneeh, as-aluka min khayrihi wakhayri ma suni'a lah, wa-a'oothu bika min sharrihi washarri ma suni'a lah

English meaning

O Allah, for You is all praise, You have clothed me with it (i.e. the garment), I ask You for the good of it and the good for which it was made, and I seek refuge with You from the evil of it and the evil for which it was made.

Explanation (Tafseer)

For putting on new clothes, the prayer first praises Allah as the one who provided the garment. It then asks for the good found in the clothing and its intended use, while seeking refuge from any evil connected with the garment or the purpose for which it was made.
