Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 48, Hadith 273

It was narrated from Jarir from Sulaiman At-Taimi, from Abu ‘Uthman A-Nahdi, who said: “We were with ‘Utbah bin Farqad when the letter of ‘Umar came, saying that the Messenger of Allah said: ‘No one wears silk except one who has no share of it in the Hereafter, except this much.'” And Abu ‘Uthman gestured with the two fingers that are next to the thumb. And I saw the two of them pointing to the borders of the Tayalisah, so that I could see the Tayalisah.

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ، قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ فَرْقَدٍ فَجَاءَ كِتَابُ عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏
“‏ لاَ يَلْبَسُ الْحَرِيرَ إِلاَّ مَنْ لَيْسَ لَهُ مِنْهُ شَىْءٌ فِي الآخِرَةِ إِلاَّ هَكَذَا ‏”‏ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ أَبُو عُثْمَانَ بِأُصْبُعَيْهِ اللَّتَيْنِ تَلِيَانِ الإِبْهَامَ فَرَأَيْتُهُمَا أَزْرَارَ الطَّيَالِسَةِ حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ الطَّيَالِسَةَ ‏.‏

Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 48, Hadith 273

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan an-Nasa’i collection of hadiths. Sunan an-Nasa’i is a cornerstone of hadith literature, meticulously compiled by the celebrated Islamic scholar Ahmad ibn Shu’ayb al-Nasa’i in the 9th century. It is irrevocably positioned as one of the six most important collections, the Kutub al-Sittah, that underpin Sunni Islamic law and belief. The work contains a substantial body of over 5,700 narrations that record the sayings, actions, and tacit approvals of the Prophet Muhammad. Al-Nasa’i’s approach was defined by a rigorous and critical methodology that privileged authentic transmissions and deliberately filtered out weaker ones. This unwavering commitment to quality has established the Sunan as a profoundly reliable and authoritative source.
