أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمُ بْنُ نُوحٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ
أَنَّ أُكَيْدِرَ دُومَةَ أَهْدَى إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ جُبَّةَ سُنْدُسٍ فَلَبِسَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَعَجِبَ النَّاسُ مِنْهَا فَقَالَ «أَتَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ هَذِهِ؟ فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَمَنَادِيلُ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَحْسَنُ مِنْهَا» وَأَهْدَاهَا إِلَى عُمَرَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ تَكْرَهُهَا وَأَلْبَسُهَا قَالَ «يَا عُمَرُ إِنِّي إِنَّمَا أَرْسَلْتُ بِهَا إِلَيْكَ لِتَبْعَثَ بِهَا وَجْهًا تُصِيبُ بِهَا وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنْهَى عَنِ الْحَرِيرِ»

✧ Ukaydir of Dumah gifted the Messenger of Allah ﷺ a robe of fine silk brocade. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wore it, and the people marveled at it. He said: “Do you marvel at this? By the One in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, the handkerchiefs of Sa'd b. Mu'adh in Paradise are better than it.” Then he gave it to Umar, who said: O Messenger of Allah, you dislike it and I should wear it? He said: “O Umar, I only sent it to you so that you could send it as a gift to someone and thereby benefit. That was before silk was forbidden.”
