حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ قُرْمٍ (١) ، عَنِ الْأَشْعَثِ، عَنْ عَمَّتِهِ رُهْمٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ خَلَفٍ قَالَ: قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ وَأَنَا شَابٌّ مُتَأَزِّرٌ بِبُرْدَةٍ لِي مَلْحَاءَ أَجُرُّهَا، فَأَدْرَكَنِي رَجُلٌ فَغَمَزَنِي بِمِخْصَرَةٍ مَعَهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " أَمَا لَوْ رَفَعْتَ ثَوْبَكَ كَانَ أَبْقَى وَأَنْقَى "، فَالْتَفَتُّ، فَإِذَا هُوَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّمَا هِيَ بُرْدَةٌ مَلْحَاءُ، قَالَ: " وَإِنْ كَانَتْ بُرْدَةً مَلْحَاءَ، أَمَا لَكَ فِيَّ أُسْوَةٍ (٢) "، فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَى إِزَارِهِ فَإِذَا فَوْقَ الْكَعْبَيْنِ، وَتَحْتَ الْعَضَلَةِ (٣)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from a Companion (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was in the market of "Dhu al-Majaz." I was wearing a beautiful red and white sheet on my body. Suddenly, a man poked me with his stick and said, "Raise your lower garment, for it lasts longer and remains clean." When I looked, it was the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). I said, "O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), this is a beautiful sheet." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Even if it is beautiful, is there not an example for you in my person?" And I observed that the lower garment of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) was up to the middle of his shins.
