Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الأَحْوَلِ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَنْهَى عَنِ الْحَرِيرِ، وَالدِّيبَاجِ، إِلاَّ مَا كَانَ هَكَذَا ثُمَّ أَشَارَ بِإِصْبَعِهِ ثُمَّ الثَّانِيَةِ ثُمَّ الثَّالِثَةِ ثُمَّ الرَّابِعَةِ وَقَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَنْهَانَا عَنْهُ ‏.‏

Abū Bakr ibn Abī Shaybah narrated to us: Ḥafṣ ibn Ghiyāth narrated to us, from ʿĀṣim al-Aḥwal, from Abū ʿUthmān, from ʿUmar, who used to forbid silk and brocade, except for an amount like this. Then he gestured with his finger, then the second, third, and fourth fingers. He said: “The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, used to forbid us from it.”
