Sayyiduna Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A piece of silk was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). People began to touch it and were amazed at its softness. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The handkerchiefs of Sa’d bin Mu’adh in Paradise are softer than this (the narrator is in doubt, perhaps these are the words:) better than this. The narrator named Shu’bah has reported this. The same narration has been transmitted by Qatadah from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a similar manner.
