حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ مَالِكًا أَبَا صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عُمَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : " بِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رِجْلَ سَرَاوِيلَ قَبْلَ الْهِجْرَةِ فَوَزَنَ لِي ، فَأَرْجَحَ لِي " .
´It was narrated that Simak bin Harb said:` "I heard Malik Abu Safwan bin 'Umairah, say: 'I bought a pair of trousers from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) before the Hijrah, and he weighed it for me and allowed more."'
Brief Explanation
1؎ : From these hadiths it is understood that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) purchased trousers (pajama) for a price, and apparently, he bought them to wear. However, it is not explicitly established from any authentic hadith that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) actually wore trousers. And the narration in which it is mentioned that he wore trousers has been declared fabricated by scholars. (Injah al-Hajah).
