Sunan Ibn Majah 3591 (Book 32, Hadith 42) #32945
Luxurious Clothing and the Hereafter

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) warned against wearing luxurious clothing as it is a sign of arrogance and pride, which are traits that will not be rewarded in the afterlife.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin 'Umar that 'Umar bin Khattab saw a silken two piece suit (being offered for sale). He said: "O Messenger of Allah, why don’t you buy this two piece suit (to wear for meeting) the delegations, and on Fridays?" The Messenger of Allah said: "This is only worn by one who has no share in the Hereafter".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَأَى حُلَّةً سِيَرَاءَ مِنْ حَرِيرٍ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوِ ابْتَعْتَ هَذِهِ الْحُلَّةَ لِلْوَفْدِ وَلِيَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ ‏ "‏ إِنَّمَا يَلْبَسُ هَذَا مَنْ لاَ خَلاَقَ لَهُ فِي الآخِرَةِ
