You sent it to me whereas you said what you had to, say (i. e. it is forbidden for men). Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: I did not send it to you so that you might wear it, but I sent it to you so that you might derive benefit from its price. (Using translation from Muslim 2072)
بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى عُمَرَ بِجُبَّةِ سُنْدُسٍ قَالَ فَلَقِيَ عُمَرُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ بَعَثْتَ إِلَيَّ بِجُبَّةِ سُنْدُسٍ وَقَدْ قُلْتَ فِيهَا مَا قُلْتَ قَالَ إِنِّي لَمْ أَبْعَثْ بِهَا إِلَيْكَ لِتَلْبَسَهَا إِنَّمَا بَعَثْتُ بِهَا إِلَيْكَ لِتَبِيعَهَا أَوْ تَسْتَنْفِعَ بِهَا
