Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِثَوْبٍ مِنْ حَرِيرٍ، فَجَعَلُوا يَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ حُسْنِهِ وَلِينِهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ لَمَنَادِيلُ سَعْدِ بْنِ مُعَاذٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ هَذَا ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Musaddad narrated to us: Yahya ibn Saʿid narrated to us, from Sufyan, who said: Abu Ishaq narrated to me, saying: I heard al-Baraʾ ibn ʿAzib (may Allah be pleased with them both) say: A silk garment was brought to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and the people admired its beauty and softness. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘The handkerchiefs of Saʿd ibn Muʿadh in Paradise are better than this.’
