2820. It was narrated from 'Umar that he used to forbid silk and brocade except that which was like that, then he gestured with his finger, then his second finger, then his third, then his fourth,[1] and said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to forbid that to us." (Sahih)

Arabic text

2820 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَنْهَى عَنِ الْحَرِيرِ وَالدِّيبَاجِ إِلَّا مَا كَانَ هَكَذَا، ثُمَّ أَشَارَ بِإِصْبَعِهِ ثُمَّ الثَّانِيَةِ ثُمَّ الثَّالِثَةِ ثُمَّ الرَّابِعَةِ، وَقَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْهَانَا عَنْهُ»

Commentary

Wearing the clothes which have some silk at the borders of a garment, such as on its hems, or around the neck, is allowed. The maximum permissible quantity of silk is four fingers. However, if it is less it is better.
