سنن نسائی · Hadith 5317
It was narrated that Wafid bin ‘Amr bin Saad bin Muadh said: “I entered upon Anas bin Málik when he came to Al-Madinah and greeted him with Salám. He said: ‘Where are you from?’ I said: ‘I am Wafid bin ‘Amr bin Saad bin Muadh.’ He said: ‘Saad was the greatest and most virtuous of people.’ Then he wept a great deal, then he said: ‘The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم sent a delegation to Ukaidir the ruler of Dumah, who sent him a Jubbah made of Ad DIbaj interwoven with gold. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم put it on, then he stood on the Minbar and sat, without speaking, then he came down and the people started touching it with their hands. He said: ‘Are you admiring this? The handkerchiefs of Saad in Paradise are more beautiful than what you see.” (Hasan)
