كتاب الحج

Arabic Text

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، كَانَ يُجَلِّلُ بُدْنَهُ الْقُبَاطِيَّ وَالأَنْمَاطَ وَالْحُلَلَ ثُمَّ يَبْعَثُ بِهَا إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ فَيَكْسُوهَا إِيَّاهَا ‏.‏

English Translation

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar used to drape his sacrificial animals in fine Egyptian linen, saddlecloths and sets of clothing, which he would afterwards send to the Kaba and have the Kaba draped with them.
