أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا أَسْبَاطٌ عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ عَنْ مَطَرٍ عَنْ أَبِي شَيْخٍ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ مَعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ فِي بَعْضِ حَجَّاتِهِ إِذْ جَمَعَ رَهْطًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَی عَنْ لُبْسِ الذَّهَبِ إِلَّا مُقَطَّعًا قَالُوا اللَّهُمَّ نَعَمْ خَالَفَهُ يَحْيَی بْنُ أَبِي کَثِيرٍ عَلَی اخْتِلَافٍ بَيْنَ أَصْحَابِهِ عَلَيْهِ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 5167
It was narrated that Abu Shaikh said: “While we were with Muawiyah on one of his pilgrimages, he gathered together a group of the Companions of Muhammad صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم and said to them: O you not know that the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم forbade wearing gold unless it was broken smaller pieces)?’ They said:, yes.” (Sahih) Yahyah bin Abi Kathir contradicted as his other companions offered.
