ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ اشْتِمَالِ الصَّمَّاءِ وَالِاحْتِبَاءِ فِي الثَّوْبِ الْوَاحِدِ اللَّذَيْنِ نُهِيَ عَنْهُمَا

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade wearing two garments that overlap with each other, which means that the ends of one garment are placed on the shoulders while the opening of the other garment is visible. Another prohibition is wearing only one garment that is not covered by anything else, and it is open at the front so that one's private parts are exposed to the sky."  

ابن حبّان:٥٤٢٧أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي السَّرِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ اللَّيْثِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ

«نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ لُبْسَتَيْنِ اشْتِمَالِ الصَّمَّاءِ وَهُوَ أَنْ يَشْتَمِلَ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ يَضَعُ طَرَفَيِ الثَّوْبِ عَلَى عَاتِقِهِ وَيَبْدُو شِقُّهُ وَالْآخَرُ أَنْ يَحْتَبِيَ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ غَيْرُهُ يُفْضِي بِفَرْجِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ»
