Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 34258 — The virtues of Ali bin Abi Talib

Hubayrah bin Yarim (may Allah have mercy on him) said that Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: A suit adorned with silk was given as a gift to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); either its warp was silk or its weft was silk. He (peace and blessings be upon him) sent that suit to me. I brought the suit and presented myself to him (peace and blessings be upon him), and I asked: "What should I do with it? Should I wear it?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No! I do not approve for you what I dislike for myself."
