حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا نَادَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا نَلْبَسُ مِنْ الثِّيَابِ إِذَا أَحْرَمْنَا قَالَ لَا تَلْبَسُوا الْقُمُصَ وَلَا الْعَمَائِمَ وَلَا الْبَرَانِسَ وَلَا السَّرَاوِيلَاتِ وَلَا الْخُفَّيْنِ إِلَّا أَحَدٌ لَا يَجِدُ نَعْلَيْنِ وَقَالَ يَحْيَى مَرَّةً إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ رَجُلٌ لَيْسَ لَهُ نَعْلَانِ فَلْيَقْطَعْهُمَا أَسْفَلَ مِنْ الْكَعْبَيْنِ وَلَا يَلْبَسْ ثَوْبًا مَسَّهُ وَرْسٌ أَوْ زَعْفَرَانٌ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 5166
It was narrated from Tbn 'Umar that a man called out to the Messenger of Allah what garments can we wear when we enter ihram? He said: "Do not wear chemises, headcovers, burnouses, pants or khuffayn, except one who cannot find sandals." Yahya said on one occasion: "Except for a man who does not have sandals; let him cut them (the khuffayn) so that they come lower than the ankles. And he should not wear any garment that has been touched by wars (memecylon tinctorium, a plant dye) or saffron."
