Arabic text

4042 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ الْأَحْوَلُ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ، قَالَ: كَتَبَ عُمَرُ، إِلَى عُتْبَةَ بْنِ فَرْقَدٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «نَهَى عَنِ الْحَرِيرِ إِلَّا مَا كَانَ هَكَذَا، وَهَكَذَا أُصْبُعَيْنِ وَثَلَاثَةً وَأَرْبَعَةً»
