(Note): In the narration of Aḥmad: "and among them are its mustard and its condiment." It is mentioned in "al-Nihāyah": "al-ṣanāb: mustard prepared with oil, which is a dye used as a condiment."

"If you are ʿAbd Allāh, then raise your lower garment." It was recorded by Aḥmad (2/141): Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān al-Ṭafāwī narrated to us, Ayyūb narrated from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ibn ʿUmar who said: "I entered upon the Prophet (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam), and I was wearing a lower garment that was rustling. He said: Who is this? I said: ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿUmar. He said: If you are ʿAbd Allāh, then raise your lower garment. So I raised my garment to the middle of the calves, and it remained like that until he died." Then it was also recorded (2/147): ʿAbd al-Razzāq narrated to us, Maʿmar informed us from Zayd ibn Aslam with it. I said: And this isnād is authentic according to the criteria of the two shaykhs. And al-Haythamī said (5/123): "It was narrated by Aḥmad and al-Ṭabarānī in 'al-Awsaṭ' with two isnāds, and one of Aḥmad's isnāds has men who are the men of the authentic collections." Thus he said, but it is more appropriate to say: and the men of his two isnāds are the men of the authentic collections, for al-Ṭafāwī in the first isnād is among the men of al-Bukhārī! And the rest, as well as all the men of the second isnād, are the men of the two shaykhs. I said: And in the ḥadīth, there is clear evidence that it is obligatory for a Muslim not to lengthen his lower garment below the ankles, but rather to raise it above them, even if he does not intend arrogance. In it is a clear refutation of some shaykhs who lengthen the tails of their robes until they almost touch the ground, claiming they do not do so out of arrogance! Why do they not abandon it in adherence to the command of the Messenger of Allāh (ṣallá Allāhu ʿalayhi wa-sallam) to Ibn ʿUmar, or are they purer of heart than Ibn ʿUmar?
