Narrated Al-Bara:
The Prophet ordered us to observe seven things: To visit the sick;
follow funeral processions;
say 'May Allah bestow His Mercy on you', to the sneezer if he says, 'Praise be to Allah!;
He forbade us to wear silk, Dibaj, Qassiy and Istibarq (various kinds of silken clothes),
or to use red Mayathir (silk-cushions). (See Hadith No. 253 A, Vol. 8).
حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ مُقَرِّنٍ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ أَمَرَنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِسَبْعٍ عِيَادَةِ الْمَرِيضِ، وَاتِّبَاعِ الْجَنَائِزِ، وَتَشْمِيتِ الْعَاطِسِ، وَنَهَانَا عَنْ لُبْسِ الْحَرِيرِ، وَالدِّيبَاجِ، وَالْقَسِّيِّ، وَالإِسْتَبْرَقِ، وَمَيَاثِرِ الْحُمْرِ.
