"O You the posterity of Adam, We have sent for you dress/clothing for you to cover/hide/conceal your body and for protection [from heat discharge/outflow]/comfort/" {Refer 7:26}

Any thing which is raised above the ground level is called ?????? , evident, visible, conspicuously perceivable; outer and upper portion of anything.
