Explanation:

From this hadith, the permissibility of wearing a black turban is established.
It is better not to wear an entirely black garment,
because this is the mourning attire of a particular group,
therefore, it is necessary to avoid and abstain from resembling them.

English translation:
"Without ihram": The Hanafis consider this to be a special permission granted to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), but there is no evidence for this. In the narrations, special permission is mentioned in relation to killing (i.e., hunting), but not in relation to ihram. (For further details, see narration number: 2870)

Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
“Without ihram,” because it is prohibited to cover the head while in ihram. It is understood from this that if a person intends to go to Makkah Mukarramah for some purpose other than Hajj or ‘Umrah, and he resides outside the miqat, then it is not obligatory for him to assume ihram when passing through the miqat. The Hanafis have taken a stricter stance here: that anyone who wishes to go to Makkah Mukarramah and resides outside the miqat, it is obligatory for him to assume ihram when passing through the miqat, whether he intends Hajj or ‘Umrah or not. They consider this hadith to be specific to the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), but this view is weak and contrary to explicit ahadith, because in authentic ahadith it is clearly stated that the miqat is for the one who intends Hajj or ‘Umrah. When the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) designated the miqat (places for assuming ihram) for people coming to Makkah al-Mu‘azzamah from different directions to attain the blessing of Hajj and ‘Umrah, he said: [فَهُنَّ لهنَّ ولِمَن أتى عليهنَّ، مِن غيرِ أهْلِهِنَّ مِمَّنْ كانَ يُرِيدُ الحَجَّ والعُمْرَةَ ] “These miqat are for the inhabitants of those regions, and also for those who come from other places, who are not inhabitants of those regions. (These miqat are) for every person who intends Hajj or ‘Umrah.” (Sahih al-Bukhari, Book of Hajj, Chapter: The Time for the People of al-Sham, Hadith: 1526; and Sahih Muslim, Book of Hajj, Chapter: The Miqat of Hajj, Hadith: 1181) Thus, it is clear that if a person does not intend Hajj or ‘Umrah, then these miqat are not for him, nor is it obligatory for him to assume ihram when passing through them.
