Sunan an-Nasa'i 1041
أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حُنَيْنٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ نَهَانِي النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ خَاتَمِ الذَّهَبِ وَعَنِ الْقِرَاءَةِ رَاكِعًا وَعَنِ الْقَسِّيِّ وَالْمُعَصْفَرِ .
ʿUbaydullah ibn Saʿid informed us: Yahya ibn Saʿid narrated to us, from Ibn ʿAjlan, from Ibrahim ibn ʿAbdullah ibn Hunayn, from his father, from Ibn ʿAbbas, from ʿAli, who said: “The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade me gold rings, reciting while bowing, al-qassiy, and safflower-dyed cloth.”
Translation notes
Al-qassiy is retained in transliteration; the exact garment or material is not identified in this wording. The Arabic lists the prohibited items without repeating an explicit verb such as “wearing” for each clothing term.
أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ،
The English witness is abridged in the transmission chain; the Arabic source preserves it.
Should the English witness include the omitted chain in its separate source record?
قَالَ نَهَانِي النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ خَاتَمِ الذَّهَبِ وَعَنِ الْقِرَاءَةِ رَاكِعًا وَعَنِ الْقَسِّيِّ وَالْمُعَصْفَرِ .
The garment named al-qassiy is not specified more precisely in the source.
What garment or material is intended by al-qassiy here?
