Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَا يَلْبَسُ الْمُحْرِمُ مِنَ الثِّيَابِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ يَلْبَسِ الْقَمِيصَ، وَلاَ الْعَمَائِمَ، وَلاَ السَّرَاوِيلاَتِ، وَلاَ الْبُرْنُسَ، وَلاَ ثَوْبًا مَسَّهُ زَعْفَرَانٌ وَلاَ وَرْسٌ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ نَعْلَيْنِ فَلْيَلْبَسِ الْخُفَّيْنِ، وَلْيَقْطَعْهُمَا حَتَّى يَكُونَا أَسْفَلَ مِنَ الْكَعْبَيْنِ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Ahmad ibn Yunus narrated to us; Ibrahim ibn Sad narrated to us; Ibn Shihab narrated to us, from Salim, from Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), that the Messenger of Allah was asked what clothing a person in ihram may wear. He said: Do not wear shirts, turbans, trousers, hooded cloaks, or clothing touched by saffron or wars dye. If you cannot find sandals, wear leather socks, but cut them so they fall below the ankles.

Translation notes
  • Wars is retained as the name of a plant dye.
