كَانَ حُذَيْفَةُ بِالْمَدَايِنِ فَاسْتَسْقَى، فَأَتَاهُ دِهْقَانٌ بِقَدَحِ فِضَّةٍ، فَرَمَاهُ بِهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي لَمْ أَرْمِهِ إِلاَّ أَنِّي نَهَيْتُهُ فَلَمْ يَنْتَهِ، وَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَهَانَا عَنِ الْحَرِيرِ وَالدِّيبَاجِ وَالشُّرْبِ فِي آنِيَةِ الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَقَالَ هُنَّ لَهُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَهْىَ لَكُمْ فِي الآخِرَةِ .
While Hudhaita was at Mada'in, he asked for water. The chief of the village brought him a silvervessel. Hudhaifa threw it away and said, "I have thrown it away because I told him not to use it, but hehas not stopped using it. The Prophet (ﷺ) forbade us to wear clothes of silk or Dibaj, and to drink in goldor silver utensils, and said, 'These things are for them (unbelievers) in this world and for you(Muslims) in the Hereafter.' "
