5313 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ، عَنْ وَبَرَةَ، عَنْ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ غَفَلَةَ، ح وأَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ أَبِي حَصِينٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ غَفَلَةَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ «لَمْ يُرَخِّصْ فِي الدِّيبَاجِ إِلَّا مَوْضِعَ أَرْبَعِ أَصَابِعَ»

In the previous narration, there is mention of two fingers; in this there is four. The majority of the people of knowledge consider a four finger wide strip is permissible; not more, because no narration has come giving permission for more than this.
