٣٧۔ كتاب اللباس والزينة
When I was married, Messenger of Allah (may peace he upon him) asked me if I had got the carpet. I said: How can we have carpets? (i. e. I am so poor that I cannot even think of carpets). whereupon he said: You shall soon possess them.
لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمَّا تَزَوَّجْتُ أَتَّخَذْتَ أَنْمَاطًا قُلْتُ وَأَنَّى لَنَا أَنْمَاطٌ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ

Jabir said: My wife had possessed a carpet, and I said to her to remove that away from me, but she would say: Messenger of Allah ﷺ had said: You will soon have.
لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَتَّخَذْتَ أَنْمَاطًا قُلْتُ وَأَنَّى لَنَا أَنْمَاطٌ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ قَالَ جَابِرٌ وَعِنْدَ امْرَأَتِي نَمَطٌ فَأَنَا أَقُولُ نَحِّيهِ عَنِّي وَتَقُولُ قَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّهَا سَتَكُونُ
