buy it from him, thinking that he would sell it cheap. When I asked the Prophet he said, “Don’t buy it,

is like a dog that swallows back its vomit.”

sent one to ‘Umar. ‘Umar said to the Prophet “How can I wear it, while you said about it what you
said?” The Prophet said, “I have not given it to you to wear, but to sell or to give to someone else.” So,
‘Umar sent it to his brother at Mecca before he embraced Islam.
