Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a Bedouin stood before the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! Drought has destroyed us. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I do not fear this as much as I fear another thing even more, and that is that the world will pour upon you like rain. I wish my Ummah would not wear gold.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever from my Ummah wore gold and died in that state that he used to wear it, then Allah Almighty will make the gold of Paradise forbidden for him. And whoever from my Ummah wore silk and died in that state that he used to wear it, then Allah Almighty will make the silk of Paradise forbidden for him.

Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day should neither wear silk nor gold.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zubair (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: I heard Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) say in his sermon: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever wears silk in this world will not be made to wear it in the Hereafter. In another narration: Whoever wears silk in this world will have no share of it in the Hereafter.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Only he wears silk who has no share in the Hereafter.

Syedna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Only he wears silk in this world who does not hope to wear it in the Hereafter; thus, only he wears silk who has no share in the Hereafter. Hasan Basri says: What will be the state of those people to whom this saying of their Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has reached, yet they still use silk in their clothing and homes.

It is also narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would keep watch for silk garments and would have them removed.

Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever wears silk in this world will never wear it in the Hereafter.

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a monk gave the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) a fine silk cloak. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wore it, then he came home and took it off. Meanwhile, he learned that a delegation had arrived. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) advised the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to wear that same cloak upon the arrival of the delegation, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This garment is not suitable for us in this world; it will be for us in the Hereafter. But O Umar! You take it." He said: "You dislike it, and I should take it—how can that be?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I am not giving it to you so that you wear it; I am giving it to you so that you send it to the region of Persia and obtain wealth in exchange for it." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent it to the Negus, because he had treated those Companions well who had migrated to him.

Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir al-Juhani (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led us in the Maghrib prayer, while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was wearing a silk cloak with slits. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) completed the prayer, he removed it with great severity and said: This is not befitting for the pious.
