1722. Anas bin Mālik narrated that ‘Abdur-Raḥmān bin ‘Awf, and Az-Zubair bin Al-‘Awwām complained of lice to the Prophet ﷺ during a battle that they participated in. So he permitted them to wear silk shirts. He (Anas) said: “I saw them wearing them.” (Ṣaḥīh) [Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīh.
١٧٢٢ - حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ «أَنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَوْفٍ» وَالزُّبَيْرَ بْنَ الْعَوَّامِ شَكَيَا الْقَمْلَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزَاةٍ لَهُمَا فَرَخَّصَ لَهُمَا فِي قُمُصِ الْحَرِيرِ، قَالَ: وَرَأَيْتُهُ عَلَيْهِمَا. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Lice entering the clothes can result in severe itching for the wearers, so in order to remedy this problem, or some disease, wearing silk has been permitted in such cases.
