Hadith Commentary:

In the Prophetic era, the construction of footwear was similar to the modern-day flip-flop. In it, there was a piece of leather between the toes, and its other end was tied to the strap (zamaam). The strap is also called "qibaal." In this type of footwear, most of the foot remains exposed. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) used to wash his feet without removing them, as is explicitly mentioned in the hadith. (: Sahih al-Bukhari, Book of Ablution, Hadith: 166) It is narrated from Ibn Abbas (radi Allahu anhu) that he said the sandals of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) had two straps, whose laces were double. (: Sunan Ibn Majah, Book of Clothing, Hadith: 3614)

Hafiz Ibn Hajar (rahimahullah) has written that the second part of the chapter heading is established in this way: since the sandals of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) had two straps, it is established that each sandal had one strap. (: Fath al-Bari: 10/385)
