Imam Muslim relates in his Sahih, in the first chapter of the book of
clothing, that Hadrat Asma' bint Abi Bakr [radi allahu anha] said:
"Here is the cloak [jubba] of the Messenger of Allah [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam]...[which] was with 'A'isha [radi allahu anha] until she died, then I got possession of it. The Messenger of Allah [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam] used to wear it, and we washed it for the sick so that they could seek cure thereby."
Imam al-Nawawi comments in Sharh Sahih Muslim [Book 37 Chapter 2 S 10]: "In this hadith is a proof that it is recommented to seek blessings through the relics of the righteous and their clothes [wa-fi hadha al-hadithihi dalilin 'ala istihbabi al-tabarruki bi-athar al-salihina wa-thiyabihim]."
This verdict puts to rest the possible claim that, on the basis of the above reports, such veneration applies only to the Prophet [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam]. This would be contrary to the rules of Islamic Principles [usul] and probably none claims it except the uneducated.

THE COMPANIONS SOUGHT BLESSINGS FROM THE SHOES OF THE MESSENGER OF ALLAH [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sahbihi wa sallam]
Imam al-Bukhari and Imam At-Tirmidhi [in al-Shama'il] narrate that 'Isa ibn Tahran said:
'Anas ibn Malik [radi allahi anhi] brought out to us a pair of smooth leather shoes with straps. Later, Thabit al-Banani told me that Anas had told him the shoes had belonged to the Messenger of Allah [sall allahu alayhi wa sallam]. So Anas ibn Malik kept the shoes of the Messenger [sall allahu alayhi wa sallam] for their blessings, and showed them to his guests in order to share with them the honour of these blessings.

THE FOLLOWERS WOULD SEEK BLESSINGS FROM THE HANDS OF THE COMPANIONS THAT HAD TOUCHED THE PROPHET'S [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallams] HAND
Imam Ahmad narrated in his Musnad that;
Thabit ibn al-Banani said to Hadrat Anas ibn Malik [radi allahu anhu]: 'O Anas, did you touch the hand of the Messenger of Allah [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam] with your hand?' Anas said yes. Thabit said: 'Let me kiss it then.' So he kissed his hand because it had touched the hand of the Prophet [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam].

THE COMPANIONS SOUGHT BLESSINGS AND CURES FROM THE CLOTHS OF THE MESSENGER OF ALLAH [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam]
Muslim narrates that 'Abdullah, the freed slave of Asma' bint Abi Bakr [radi allahu anha] said:
'One day, Asma' brought out for us a jubbah decorated with a pattern and hemlines, its collar and cuffs lined with brocade, and said: "This is the jubbah of the Messenger of Allah [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam], which was in the keeping of Hadrat A'isha, and when she [radi allahu anha] passed away I took it. The Prophet [sall allahu alayhi wa aalihi wa sallam] used to wear it, and now we wash it to treat the sick,"'

Imam Nawawi commented on this hadith (Sharh Muslim: Book 37, Ch. 2), saying: "wa fi hadha-l hadith daleel 'ala istihbab at-tabarruk bi-Athar as-Saliheen wa Thiyabihim", meaning in English: In this hadith, there is proof/evidence of the desirability of seeking blessings through the relics of the righteous people and their clothes."
