[5409] 10 - (2069) It was narrated that 'Abdullâh, the freed slave of Asmâ' bint Abî Bakr, who was the maternal uncle of the son of 'Âtâ', said: "Asmâ' sent me to 'Abdullâh bin 'Umar, and saying: 'I have heard that you regard three things as Harâm: Borders on garments, Mitharat Al-Arjuwân,[1] and fasting the whole (month) of Rajab.' 'Abdullâh said to me: 'As for what you have mentioned about Rajab, what about one who fasts continually? As for what you said about borders on garments, I heard 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭâb say: 'I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: 'Silk is only worn by one who has no share in the Hereafter,'" and I was afraid that borders were included in that. As for Mitharat Al-Arjuwân, this is the Mitharah of 'Abdullâh, and it is Arjuwân.'
I went back to Asmâ' and told her, and she said: 'This is the Jubbah (a type of cloak) of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ,' and she brought out to me a Tayâlisah cloak which had pockets lined with Dībâj and its sleeves were edged with Dībâj. She said: 'This was in 'Aishah's possession until she died, and when she died, I took it. The Prophet ﷺ used to
[1] Saddle cloths made of bright red cloth
wear it, and now we wash it for the sick and seek healing thereby.”
