Sahih al-Bukhari 926 (Book 13, Hadith 1)
Take it and adorn yourself with it during the `Id and when the delegations visit you.” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)
(p.b.u.h) replied, “This dress is for those who have no share (in the Hereafter).” After a long period
Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) (p.b.u.h) sent to `Umar a cloak of silk brocade. `Umar came to Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)
(p.b.u.h) with the cloak and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! You said that this dress was for those who had
no share (in the Hereafter); yet you have sent me this cloak.” Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said to him, “Sell it and
fulfill your needs by it.”
Sahih al-Bukhari 926 (Book 13, Hadith 1)
The above hadith is from the Sahih al-Buhari collection of hadiths. Within the Islamic scholarly tradition, few works hold as much weight as Sahih al-Bukhari. This vast compilation, assembled by the Persian scholar al-Bukhārī circa 847, is a cornerstone of Sunni faith and practice. It is one of the six canonical hadith collections known collectively as the Kutub al-Sittah. Imam al-Bukhārī’s work is particularly celebrated for its author’s stringent criteria in verifying the chain of narration (isnad), resulting in a trusted body of over 7,500 hadiths organized into 97 distinct chapters that cover every aspect of life.
