Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 1344
حديث عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، قَالَ: أُهْدِيَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَرُّوجُ حَرِيرٍ، فَلَبِسَهُ فَصَلّى فِيهِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَنَزَعَهُ نَزْعًا شَدِيدًا كَالْكَارِهِ لَهُ وَقَالَ: لَا يَنْبَغِي هذَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ.
'Uqbah bin 'Amir Narrated from:
The Prophet ﷺ was given a silken Farrûj as a present. He wore it while offering Salât (prayer). When he had finished his Salat, he took it off violently as if with a strong aversion to it and said, "It is not the dress of Al-Mutaqûn : [means pious and righteous persons who fear Allâh much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden) and love Allâh عزوجل much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained)]. ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 372, Vol. 1)
