The Dark Danger
There are hadiths showing that silk cloth was also used in
the time of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh):
Narrated Sa'd: I saw a man riding on a white mule and he
had a black turban of silk and wool. He said: The Apostle
of God (pbuh) put it on me. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 32,
Hadith 4027)
Abu Dawud said: Twenty Companions of the Apostle of
God (pbuh) or more put on khazz [silk]. Anas and al-Bara'
b. 'Azib were among them. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 27,
Hadith 4028)
As we have seen, Muslims were regarded
as deserving of beauty and fine clothing
in the Sunnah of our Prophet (pbuh).
