عَنْ قَتَادَةَ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ فَرْقَدٍ فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ بِأَشْيَاءَ يُحَدِّثُهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَكَانَ فِيمَا كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَا يَلْبَسُ الْحَرِيرَ فِي الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا مَنْ لَيْسَ لَهُ فِي الْآخِرَةِ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ إِلَّا هَكَذَا وَقَالَ بِإِصْبَعَيْهِ السَّبَّابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى قَالَ أَبُو عُثْمَانَ فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّهَا أَزْرَارُ الطَّيَالِسَةِ حِينَ رَأَيْنَا الطَّيَالِسَةَ
(Second chain) Abu Uthman Nahdi says: We were with Sayyiduna Utbah bin Farqad (may Allah be pleased with him), when Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) sent him some written instructions, which he had narrated from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). In it, it was also written that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Only that person wears silk in this world who has no share in the Hereafter, except equal to two fingers. Along with this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gestured with his index and middle fingers. Abu Uthman says: When we saw the Tayalisi garment, we estimated that the buttons of the Tayalisi garment were of this amount.
