Narrated by Muhammad ibn ‘Ubaydullah, who said: Ibrahim ibn Sa’d informed us from Salih, from Ibn Shuhba, from Abu Umamah ibn Sahl that he heard Abu Sa’id al-Khudri saying: The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, “While I was sleeping, I saw people being presented to me, wearing shirts. Some of the shirts reached up to the breasts, and some were shorter than that. Then ‘Umar ibn al-Khattab was presented to me, and he was wearing a shirt that he was dragging.” They asked, “How did you interpret this, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “The religion.”
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ صَالِحٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ، يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ” بَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ رَأَيْتُ النَّاسَ يُعْرَضُونَ عَلَىَّ، وَعَلَيْهِمْ قُمُصٌ مِنْهَا مَا يَبْلُغُ الثُّدِيَّ، وَمِنْهَا مَا دُونَ ذَلِكَ، وَعُرِضَ عَلَىَّ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَعَلَيْهِ قَمِيصٌ يَجُرُّهُ ”. قَالُوا فَمَا أَوَّلْتَ ذَلِكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ” الدِّينَ ”.
