Sahih al-Bukhari 6640 (Book 83, Hadith 19) #6386
The Beauty of Paradise

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ was given a piece of silken cloth as a present and the people were amazed by its beauty and softness. He then said that the handkerchiefs of Sa'd in Paradise are better than it.

Narrated Al-Bara 'bin 'Azib: A piece of silken cloth was given to the Prophet as a present and the people handed it over amongst themselves and were astonished at its beauty and softness. Allah's Messenger said, "Are you astonished at it?" They said, "Yes, O Allah's Messenger !" He said, "By Him in Whose Hand my soul is, the handkerchiefs of Sa'd in Paradise are better than it".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، قَالَ أُهْدِيَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ سَرَقَةٌ مِنْ حَرِيرٍ، فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَتَدَاوَلُونَهَا بَيْنَهُمْ، وَيَعْجَبُونَ مِنْ حُسْنِهَا وَلِينِهَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ أَتَعْجَبُونَ مِنْهَا ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالُوا نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَمَنَادِيلُ سَعْدٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ خَيْرٌ مِنْهَا ‏"‏‏.‏ لَمْ يَقُلْ شُعْبَةُ وَإِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ‏"‏ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ
