Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَأَى عُطَارِدًا يَبِيعُ حُلَّةً مِنْ دِيبَاجٍ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ عُطَارِدًا يَبِيعُ حُلَّةً مِنْ دِيبَاجٍ فَلَوْ اشْتَرَيْتَهَا فَلَبِسْتَهَا لِلْوُفُودِ وَلِلْعِيدِ وَلِلْجُمُعَةِ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا يَلْبَسُ الْحَرِيرَ مَنْ لَا خَلَاقَ لَهُ حَسِبْتُهُ قَالَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ قَالَ ثُمَّ أُهْدِيَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حُلَلٌ مِنْ سِيَرَاءَ حَرِيرٍ فَأَعْطَى عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ حُلَّةً وَأَعْطَى أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ حُلَّةً وَبَعَثَ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ بِحُلَّةٍ وَقَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ شَقِّقْهَا بَيْنَ النِّسَاءِ خُمُرًا وَجَاءَ عُمَرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ سَمِعْتُكَ قُلْتَ فِيهَا مَا قُلْتَ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلْتَ إِلَيَّ بِحُلَّةٍ فَقَالَ إِنِّي لَمْ أُرْسِلْهَا إِلَيْكَ لِتَلْبَسَهَا وَلَكِنْ لِتَبِيعَهَا فَأَمَّا أُسَامَةُ فَلَبِسَهَا فَرَاحَ فِيهَا فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا رَأَى أُسَامَةُ يُحَدَّدُ إِلَيْهِ الطَّرْفَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَسَوْتَنِيهَا قَالَ شَقِّقْهَا بَيْنَ النِّسَاءِ خُمُرًا أَوْ كَالَّذِي قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
English Translation
Abdur-Razzaq told us, Ma'mar informed us, from Ayyub, from Nafi', from Ibn Umar, that Umar ibn al-Khattab saw Utarid selling a garment of brocade. So he came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, I saw Utarid selling a garment of brocade; if only you would buy it and wear it for delegations, for the Eid, and for Friday. He said: Only one who has no share [in the Hereafter] wears silk - I think he said in the Hereafter. He said: Then garments of striped silk were given as a gift to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He gave Ali ibn Abi Talib a garment, gave Usamah ibn Zayd a garment, and sent a garment to Umar ibn al-Khattab, and said to Ali: Cut it into pieces to make headscarves for the women. Umar came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, I heard you say what you said about it, then you sent me a garment? He said: I did not send it to you to wear it, but to sell it. As for Usamah, he wore it and went about in it, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) kept looking at him. When Usamah saw him staring intently at him, he said: O Messenger of Allah, you clothed me with it! He said: Cut it into pieces to make headscarves for the women - or words to that effect, as the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said.
