‘Ubaydullah bin ‘Abdullah bin ‘Utbah says that he went to visit Abu Talhah Al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) at his house, and I found Sahl bin Hunaif (may Allah be pleased with him) with him. Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) called a man to bring out the sheet that was under him. Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him:“Why are you taking it out?”He said:“Because it has images on it, and you know what the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said about this.”Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) said:“He also said: ‘Except for a cloth with patterns.’”Abu Talhah said:“He did say that, but this is better for me.”1. Imam Tirmidhi says: This hadith is Hasan Sahih.

'Aishah narrated: "We had a cloth which had some pictures on it as a curtain on my door. The Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) saw it and said: 'Remove it, for it reminds me of the world.'" She said: "We had a piece of velvet that had patches of silk on it which we used to wear."
