(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
يَزِيدُ ، حَدَّثَنَا
عَاصِمٌ ، عَنْ
أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ ، عَنْ
عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : اتَّزِرُوا وَارْتَدُوا وَانْتَعِلُوا ، وَأَلْقُوا الْخِفَافَ وَالسَّرَاوِيلَاتِ ، وَأَلْقُوا الرُّكُبَ وَانْزُوا نَزْوًا ، وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالْمَعَدِّيَّةِ ، وَارْمُوا الْأَغْرَاضَ ، وَذَرُوا التَّنَعُّمَ وَزِيَّ الْعَجَمِ ، وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَالْحَرِيرَ ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ نَهَى عَنْهُ ، وَقَالَ : " لَا تَلْبَسُوا مِنَ الْحَرِيرِ إِلَّا مَا كَانَ هَكَذَا ، وَأَشَارَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِإِصْبَعَيْهِ .
Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) used to say: Tie the lower garment (tehband) and also drape a sheet over the upper part of the body, wear shoes, leave socks and trousers, mount your ride by jumping onto it instead of making it kneel on its knees so that your bravery and courage may increase, make the riding style of the tribe of Ma'ad obligatory upon yourselves, learn to hit the target, abandon luxury, indulgence, and the customs of the non-Arabs, and protect yourselves from silk, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade it and said: Do not wear silk, except for such a small amount—and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) indicated with his two fingers.
