(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا فُلَيْحٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ ، قَالَ : دَخَلْنَا عَلَى جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ مُلْتَحِفًا بِهِ ، وَرِدَاؤُهُ قَرِيبٌ لَوْ تَنَاوَلَهُ بَلَغَهُ ، فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ ، سَأَلْنَاهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّمَا أَفْعَلُ هَذَا لِيَرَانِي الْحَمْقَى أَمْثَالُكُمْ ، فَيُفْشُوا عَلَى جَابِرٍ رُخْصَةً رَخَّصَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ جَابِرٌ : خَرَجْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِهِ ، فَجِئْتُهُ لَيْلَةً وَهُوَ يُصَلِّي فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ وَعَلَيَّ ثَوْبٌ وَاحِدٌ فَاشْتَمَلْتُ بِهِ ، ثُمَّ قُمْتُ إِلَى جَنْبِهِ ، قَالَ : " يَا جَابِرُ ، مَا هَذَا الِاشْتِمَالُ ؟ إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ وَعَلَيْكَ ثَوْبٌ وَاحِدٌ ، فَإِنْ كَانَ وَاسِعًا ، فَالْتَحِفْ بِهِ ، وَإِنْ كَانَ ضَيِّقًا ، فَاتَّزِرْ بِهِ " .
Saeed bin Harith says that once we went to Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him). He was wrapped in a single cloth and was praying, although another sheet was lying so close to him that if he wanted to stretch out his hand and pick it up, his hand could easily reach it. When he finished the prayer with salam, we asked him about this issue. He replied, "I did this so that fools like you may also see, and so that the concession which the Prophet (peace be upon him) has given may spread among the people through Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him)." Then he said, "Once I went out on a journey with the Prophet (peace be upon him). I came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) at night, and he was praying in a single cloth. I also had only one cloth on my body, so I wrapped it around myself and stood by the side of the Prophet (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, 'Jabir, what is this way of wrapping?' When you stand for prayer and you have only one cloth and it is wide, then wrap it well around yourself, and if it is tight, then make it like a waist-wrapper (tahband)."
