وحَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ ، وَأَبُو كَامِلٍ ، وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَبِي كَامِلٍ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْأَصَمِّ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قال : بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى عُمَرَ بِجُبَّةِ سُنْدُسٍ ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : بَعَثْتَ بِهَا إِلَيَّ وَقَدْ قُلْتَ فِيهَا مَا قُلْتَ ، قَالَ : " إِنِّي لَمْ أَبْعَثْ بِهَا إِلَيْكَ لِتَلْبَسَهَا ، وَإِنَّمَا بَعَثْتُ بِهَا إِلَيْكَ لِتَنْتَفِعَ بِثَمَنِهَا " .
Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that Allah's Messenger (may Peace be upon him) sent a silk gown to 'Umar, whereupon 'Umar said: You sent it to me whereas you said what you had to, say (i. e. it is forbidden for men). Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: I did not send it to you so that you might wear it, but I sent it to you so that you might derive benefit from its price.
