"It was narrated from Ibn 'Umar that he said: 'Umar used to provide sustenance for himself and his family, and he would clothe himself in a garment in the summer. Often his waist-wrap would tear until he mended it, and he would not replace it until the appropriate time came. And there was no year in which wealth increased but his clothing was, in my view, less than in the previous year. Hafsah spoke to him about that, and he said: I only clothe myself from the wealth of the Muslims, and this suffices me."
