5829. Narrated Abū 'Uthmān : While we were at Adharbijān, 'Umar wrote to us : "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ forbade wearing silk except this much. Then the Prophet ﷺ approximated his two fingers (index and middle fingers) (to illustrate that) to us." Zuhair (the subnarrator) raised up his middle and index fingers.
5829 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ: كَتَبَ إِلَيْنَا عُمَرُ، وَنَحْنُ بِأَذْرَبِيجَانَ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «نَهَى عَنْ لُبْسِ الحَرِيرِ إِلَّا هَكَذَا، وَصَفَّ لَنَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِصْبَعَيْهِ، وَرَفَعَ زُهَيْرٌ الوُسْطَى وَالسَّبَّابَةَ»
