ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَوْ قَالَ : قَالَ
عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : " إِذَا كَانَ لِأَحَدِكُمْ ثَوْبَانِ فَلْيُصَلِّ فِيهِمَا ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ إِلَّا ثَوْبٌ وَاحِدٌ فَلْيَتَّزِرْ بِهِ وَلَا يَشْتَمِلِ اشْتِمَالَ الْيَهُودِ " .
Ibn Umar reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying, or reported Umar as saying (the narrator is doubtful): if one of you has two (piece of) cloth, he should pray in them; if he has a single (piece of) cloth, he should use it as a wrapper, and should not hang it upon the shoulder like the Jews.

635. Commentary:
«اشتمال يهود» The meaning of wrapping like the Jews is that the sheet is worn in such a way that both hands also remain enclosed inside, making it difficult to bring them out.
