Narrated Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri
Allah’s Apostle forbade two ways of wearing clothes and two kinds of dealings. (A) He forbade the
dealings of the Mulamasa and the Munabadha. In the Mulamasa transaction the buyer just touches
the garment he wants to buy at night or by daytime, and that touch would oblige him to buy it. In the
Munabadha, one man throws his garment at another and the latter throws his at the former and the
barter is complete and valid without examining the two objects or being satisfied with them (B) The
two ways of wearing clothes were Ishtimal-as-Samma, i e., to cover one’s shoulder with one’s gar –
ment and leave the other bare: and the other way was to wrap oneself with a garment while one was
sitting In such a way that nothing of that garment would cover one’s private part

Narrated Um Khalid bint Khalid:
The Prophet was given some clothes including a black Khamisa. The Prophet said, “To whom shall
we give this to wear?” The people kept silent whereupon the Prophet said, “Fetch Um Khalid for me.” I
(Um Khalid) was brought carried (as I was small girl at that time). The Prophet took the Khamisa in
his hands and made me wear it and said, “May you live so long that your dress will wear out and you
will mend it many times.” On the Khamisa there were some green or pale designs (The Prophet saw

Conquest of Mecca.

Narrated ‘Ikrima:
Rifa’a divorced his wife whereupon ‘AbdurRahman bin Az-Zubair Al-Qurazi married her. ‘Aisha
said that the lady (came), wearing a green veil (and complained to her (Aisha) of her husband and
showed her a green spot on her skin caused by beating). It was the habit of ladies to support each
other, so when Allah’s Apostle came, ‘Aisha said, “I have not seen any woman suffering as much as
the believing women. Look! Her skin is greener than her clothes!” When ‘AbdurRahman heard that
his wife had gone to the Prophet, he came with his two sons from another wife. She said, “By Allah! I
have done no wrong to him but he is impotent and is as useless to me as this,” holding and showing
the fringe of her garment, ‘Abdur-Rahman said, “By Allah, O Allah’s Apostle! She has told a lie! I am
very strong and can satisfy her but she is disobedient and wants to go back to Rifa’a.” Allah’s Apostle
said, to her, “If that is your intention, then know that it is unlawful for you to remarry Rifa’a unless
Abdur-Rahman has had sexual intercourse with you.” Then the Prophet saw two boys with ‘Abdur-
Rahman and asked (him), “Are these your sons?” On that ‘AbdurRahman said, “Yes.” The Prophet said,
“You claim what you claim (i.e.. that he is impotent)? But by Allah, these boys resemble him as a
crow resembles a crow,”
