Sahih al-Bukhari 5801 (Book 77, Hadith 19) #5563
Luxurious Clothing and Fear of Allah

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) warning against wearing luxurious clothing as it does not befit those who fear Allah.

Narrated 'Uqba bin 'Amir: A silken Farruj was presented to Allah's Messenger and he put it on and offered the prayer in it. When he finished the prayer, he took it off violently as if he disliked it and said, "This (garment) does not befit those who fear Allah!"
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْخَيْرِ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّهُ قَالَ أُهْدِيَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَرُّوجُ حَرِيرٍ، فَلَبِسَهُ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى فِيهِ، ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَنَزَعَهُ نَزْعًا شَدِيدًا كَالْكَارِهِ لَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ يَنْبَغِي هَذَا لِلْمُتَّقِينَ ‏"‏‏.‏ تَابَعَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ عَنِ اللَّيْثِ، وَقَالَ غَيْرُهُ فَرُّوجٌ حَرِيرٌ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's warning against wearing luxurious clothing. The Prophet was presented with a silken Farruj, which he put on and offered prayer in it. After finishing his prayer, he took it off violently as if he disliked it and said that such garments do not befit those who fear Allah. This hadith teaches us that we should not wear luxurious clothing or show off our wealth to others, as this does not befit those who truly fear Allah. We should instead focus on being humble and modest in our dress sense so that we can remain true to our faith and values. It also serves as a reminder for us to stay away from extravagance in all aspects of life, including what we wear, so that we can remain focused on pleasing God through our actions rather than seeking attention from others through material possessions or appearances.
