Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 2-756b
"عَنْ عُمَرَ قَالَ: إِذَا اشْتَرى أَحَدُكُمْ جَمَلًا فَلْيَشْتره عَظِيمًا طَوِيلًا، فَإِنْ أَخْطَأَ خَيْرَهُ لَمْ يُخْطِهِ سُوقُهُ، وَلَا تُلْبِسُوا نِسَاءَكُمُ الْقَبَاطِىَّ، فإِنَّهُ إنْ لَا يَشِفَّ يَصِفُ، وَأَصْلحُوا مَثَاوِيَكُمْ، وَأَخيفُوا الْهَوَامَّ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُخِيفَكُمْ، فَإِنَّه لَا يَبْدُو لكم منهن مَسْلَمٌ".

"'Umar said: When one of you buys a camel, let him choose one that is large and tall, for if he errs in its goodness, its driver will not err. Do not dress your women in qibti cloth, for if it is thin it describes (the body). Improve your lodgings and drive away vermin before they drive you away, for no Muslim woman among them will appear to you."
