الرَّجُلِ يُحْرِمُ فِي ثِيَابِهِ
Muhammad ibn Isa narrated to us; Abu Awanah narrated to us, from Abu Bishr, from Ata, from Yala ibn Umayyah. Hushaym also narrated from al-Hajjaj, from Ata, from Safwan ibn Yala, from his father, with this report. It says that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) told him: Take off your cloak. He pulled it off over his head, and the narrator continued the report.
Yazid ibn Khalid ibn Abdullah ibn Mawhab al-Hamdani al-Ramli said: Al-Layth narrated to me, from Ata ibn Abi Rabah, from the son of Yala ibn Munyah, from his father, with this report. It says that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered him to remove it completely and bathe two or three times. The narrator then continued the report.
Uqbah ibn Mukram narrated to us; Wahb ibn Jarir narrated to us; my father narrated to us, saying: I heard Qays ibn Sad report from Ata, from Safwan ibn Yala ibn Umayyah, from his father, that a man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at al-JiRanah. He had entered ihram for Umrah, was wearing a cloak, and had dyed his beard and head yellow. The narrator continued this report.

مَا يَلْبَسُ الْمُحْرِمُ
Musaddad and Ahmad ibn Hanbal narrated to us; they said: Sufyan narrated to us, from al-Zuhri, from Salim, from his father, who said: A man asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): What clothing should a person in ihram leave off? He replied: He must not wear a shirt, a burnus, trousers, a turban, or a garment touched by wars dye or saffron. Nor may he wear leather socks, unless he cannot find sandals. Whoever cannot find sandals may wear leather socks, but should cut them so that they are below the ankles.
Abdullah ibn Maslamah narrated to us, from Malik, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), with a report of the same meaning.
Qutaybah ibn Said narrated to us; al-Layth narrated to us, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), with a report of the same meaning. It added: A woman in ihram must not wear a niqab or gloves. Abu Dawud said: Hatim ibn Ismail and Yahya ibn Ayyub narrated this from Musa ibn Uqbah, from Nafi, as al-Layth did. Musa ibn Tariq narrated it from Musa ibn Uqbah as Ibn Umar's own statement. Ubayd Allah ibn Umar, Malik, and Ayyub likewise narrated it as Ibn Umar's statement. Ibrahim ibn Said al-Madani narrated it from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): A woman in ihram must not wear a niqab or gloves. Abu Dawud said: Ibrahim ibn Said al-Madani was a Medinan transmitter with few reports.
Qutaybah ibn Said narrated to us; Ibrahim ibn Said al-Madani narrated to us, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: A woman in ihram must not wear a niqab or gloves.
Ahmad ibn Hanbal narrated to us; Yaqub narrated to us; my father narrated to us, from Ibn Ishaq, who said: Nafi, the freedman of Abdullah ibn Umar, narrated to me from Abdullah ibn Umar, who heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbid women in ihram to wear gloves, niqabs, and garments touched by wars dye or saffron. After that, she may wear whatever colors of clothing she wishes, whether yellow-dyed cloth, silk brocade, jewelry, trousers, a shirt, or leather socks. Abu Dawud said: Abdah ibn Sulayman and Muhammad ibn Salamah narrated this from Ibn Ishaq, from Nafi, only up to the words about garments touched by wars dye or saffron; they did not mention what follows.
Musa ibn Ismail narrated to us; Hammad narrated to us, from Ayyub, from Nafi, from Ibn Umar: He felt cold and said: Nafi, put a garment over me. I placed a burnus over him. He said: You put that over me, when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade a person in ihram to wear it?
Sulayman ibn Harb narrated to us; Hammad ibn Zayd narrated to us, from Amr ibn Dinar, from Jabir ibn Zayd, from Ibn Abbas, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Trousers are for one who cannot find a waist-wrapper, and leather socks are for one who cannot find sandals. Abu Dawud said: This is a report transmitted by the people of Mecca, whose route leads to Basra through Jabir ibn Zayd. Its distinctive wording is the mention of trousers; it does not mention cutting the leather socks.
Al-Husayn ibn al-Junayd al-Damaghan i narrated to us; Abu Usamah narrated to us, saying: Umar ibn Suwayd al-Thaqafi informed me; Aishah bint Talhah narrated to me that Aishah, Mother of the Believers, may Allah be pleased with her, told her: We used to travel with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to Mecca. At ihram, we would apply perfumed sukk to our foreheads. When one of us perspired, it would run down her face, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would see it but did not forbid her.
Qutaybah ibn Said narrated to us; Ibn Abi Adi narrated to us, from Muhammad ibn Ishaq, who said: I mentioned this to Ibn Shihab, and he said: Salim ibn Abdullah told me that Abdullah—meaning Ibn Umar—used to do this, meaning he cut the leather socks for a woman in ihram. Then Safiyyah bint Abi Ubayd told him that Aishah had related to her that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had granted women permission to wear leather socks, so he stopped doing that.

I asked him what that meant. He replied: The sheath with what is inside it.
