حديث أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: بَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ رَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يُعْرَضُونَ عَلَيَّ، وَعَلَيْهِمْ قُمُصٌ، مِنْهَا مَا يَبْلُغُ الثُدِيَّ، وَمِنْهَا مَا دُونَ ذَلِكَ وَعُرِضَ عَلَيَّ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَعَلَيْهِ قَمِيصٌ يَجُرُّهُ قَالُوا: فَمَا أَوَّلْتَ ذَلِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ: الدِّينَ.
Abu Sa'id al-Khudri Narrated from:
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "While I was sleeping I saw (in a dream), that some people were displayed before me wearing shirts, of which some were reaching breasts only, while others were even shorter than that. And 'Umar bin Al-Khattâb was displayed before me wearing a long shirt which he was dragging." The people asked, "How did you interpret it? (What is its interpretation), O Allâh's Messenger? He (the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم) replied: "It is the religion." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 22, Vol. 1)
