5175. Narrated Al-Barā' bin 'Āzib رضي الله عنهما: The Prophet ﷺ ordered us to do seven (things) and forbade us from seven. He ordered us to visit the patients, to follow the funeral procession, to reply to the sneezer (i.e., say to him: 'Yarhamukallāh (May Allāh bestow His Mercy upon you)', if he says 'Al-ḥamdulillāh (Praise be to Allāh)', to help others to fulfil their oaths, to help the oppressed, propagate As-Salām [(greeting) i.e. to greet one another], and to accept the invitation (to a wedding banquet). He forbade us to wear golden rings, to use silver utensils, to use Mayāthir (cushions of silk stuffed with cotton and placed under the rider on the saddle), the Qassiyā (linen clothes containing silk brought from an Egyptian town), the Istabraq (thick silk) and the Dībāj (another kind of silk).(1) (See Hadīth No.5635 and 5863).

5175 - حَدَّثَنَا الحَسَنُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ، عَنِ الأَشْعَثِ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ ، قَالَ البَرَاءُ بْنُ عَازِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: " أَمَرَنَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِسَبْعٍ وَنَهَانَا عَنْ سَبْعٍ: أَمَرَنَا بِعِيَادَةِ المَرِيضِ، وَاتِّبَاعِ الجِنَازَةِ، وَتَشْمِيتِ العَاطِسِ، وَإِبْرَارِ القَسَمِ، وَنَصْرِ المَظْلُومِ، وَإِفْشَاءِ السَّلاَمِ، وَإِجَابَةِ الدَّاعِي، وَنَهَانَا عَنْ خَوَاتِيمِ الذَّهَبِ، وَعَنْ آنِيَةِ الفِضَّةِ، وَعَنِ المَيَاثِرِ، وَالقَسِّيَّةِ، وَالإِسْتَبْرَقِ، وَالدِّيبَاجِ " تَابَعَهُ أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، وَالشَّيْبَانِيُّ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ: «فِي إِفْشَاءِ السَّلاَمِ»
