djellaba

Hauchard converted to Islam in high school at 17, and is said to have suddenly begun wearing a beard and djellaba.

“We say a cup of mint tea without bubbles is like a djellaba without a hood,” said Mouha.

He wore a black djellaba tucked into blue jeans under a bullet-proof vest.

His offence was the possession of a good Djellaba (hooded cloak) and fifteen dollars.

Over his white djellaba is a blue selham that came probably from Manchester; his stirrups are silver or plated.

He wore a fine linen djellaba of dazzling whiteness, and carried a scarlet geranium in his hand.

He wore a white djellaba and a pair of new slippers, and was probably more dangerous than any disease he aided and abetted.

Upon the nethermost of these sat an aged, bearded Jew in a black djellaba, his head swathed in a coloured kerchief.
