Habib bin Ubayd al-Rahbi narrates: Sayyiduna Abu Umamah came to Khalid bin Yazid. Khalid placed a cushion for him. Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) thought that it might be made of silk, so he moved back, walking backwards until he reached the end of the row. Meanwhile Khalid was talking with a man. When he turned his attention to Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: "O my brother, what did you suppose? Did you think that it is silk?" Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Whoever hopes for the Days of Allah will not take enjoyment from silk.'" Khalid asked him: "O Abu Umamah, did you yourself hear this from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Allah, I ask Your forgiveness! We were among a people who did not speak falsehood, nor were we ever belied."
Imam Ahmad recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Abu Bakr bin Abi Maryam, who had become confused (in his memory).
