أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ عَنْ مَالِکٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا يَلْبَسُ الْمُحْرِمُ مِنْ الثِّيَابِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا تَلْبَسُوا الْقُمُصَ وَلَا الْعَمَائِمَ وَلَا السَّرَاوِيلَاتِ وَلَا الْبَرَانِسَ وَلَا الْخِفَافَ إِلَّا أَحَدٌ لَا يَجِدُ نَعْلَيْنِ فَلْيَلْبَسْ خُفَّيْنِ وَلْيَقْطَعْهُمَا أَسْفَلَ مِنْ الْکَعْبَيْنِ وَلَا تَلْبَسُوا شَيْئًا مَسَّهُ الزَّعْفَرَانُ وَلَا الْوَرْسُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 2675
It was narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar that a man asked the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم “What clothes can the Muhrim wear?” The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: “They should not wear shirts nor ‘Imamahs, or pants, or burnouses, or Khuffs — unless a person cannot find sandals, in which case he may wear Khuffs. But he should cut them to come lower than the ankles. And they should not wear anything that has been touched by (dyed with) saffron or Wars.” (Sahih)
