قَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، ثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ إِيَادٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ وَكَانَ جَارًا لِي خَتَمَ الْقُرْآنَ عَلَى عَهْدِ عُمَرَ ؓ، قَالَ:
خَرَجَتْ خَيْلٌ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَمِعَ بِهَا أُكَيْدِرُ دُومَةَ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ، قَالَ: " ثُمَّ [إِنَّ] أُكَيْدِرَ أَخْرَجَ قُبَاءً مَنْسُوجًا بِالذَّهَبِ مِمَّا كَانَ كِسْرَى يَكْسُوهُمْ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: ارْجِعْ بِقُبَاكَ فَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَلْبَسُ هَذَا فِي الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا حُرِمَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ، فَرَجَعَ بِهِ فَلَمَّا أَتَى مَنْزِلَهُ وَجَدَ فِي نَفْسِهِ أَنْ يَرُدَّ [عَلَيْهِ] هَدِيَّتَهُ فَرَجَعَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّا أَهْلُ بَيْتٍ يَشُقُّ عَلَيْنَا أَنْ يُرَدَّ هَدِيَّتُنَا فَاقْبَلْ مِنِّي هَدِيَّتِي، فَقَالَ: انْطَلِقْ فَادْفَعْهُ إِلَى عُمَرَ ؓ، وَقَدْ كَانَ عُمَرُ ؓ سَمِعَ مَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِيهِ، فَبَكَى وَدَمَعَتْ عَيْنَاهُ، وَظَنَّ أَنْ قَدْ لَحِقَهُ شَقَاءٌ، فَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: أَحَدَثَ فِيَّ شَيْءٌ ؟ قُلْتُ: فِي هَذَا الْقُبَاءِ مَا سَمِعْتُ، ثُمَّ بَعَثْتَ بِهِ إِلَيَّ، فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى وَضَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى فِيهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ ﷺ: " مَا بَعَثْتُ بِهِ إِلَيْكَ لِتَلْبَسَهُ، وَلَكِنْ تَبِيعَهُ فَتَسْتَعِينَ بِثَمَنِهِ

✧ The horses of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out, and Ukaydir of Dumah heard of them. Then he mentioned the hadith, saying: "Then Ukaydir brought out a cloak woven with gold, of the kind that Khosrau used to clothe them. The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Return with your cloak, for no one wears this in this world except that he will be deprived of it in the Hereafter.' So he returned with it. When he reached his home, he felt uneasy about returning his gift, so he came back and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, we are a household who find it difficult to have our gifts returned, so accept my gift from me.' He said: 'Go and give it to 'Umar ؓ.' 'Umar ؓ had heard what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said about it, so he wept and his eyes shed tears, and he thought that misery had befallen him. He went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: 'Has something new happened concerning me?' He said: 'In this cloak, what I heard; then you sent it to me.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed until he put his hand over his mouth, then he ﷺ said: 'I did not send it to you to wear it, but to sell it and use its price.'"
