Foreword

Anas ibn Malik relates that as he was walking with the Prophet, who happened to have a thick-bordered Najrani burd (sheet) around his shoulders, a Bedouin came up to him and tugged at it. ‘I saw that it had left a mark on his neck. Then the Bedouin said, “O Muhammad, order some of the wealth of God which you have in your possession to be given to me.” The Prophet looked at him and smiled, then he gave orders for something to be given to him.’ HADITH OF AL-BUKHARI AND MUSLIM.
