1735 – ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; my father narrated to me; Abu Saʿid, the client of Banu Hashim, narrated to us; Abu Yaʿqub—meaning Ishaq ibn ʿUthman al-Kilabi—narrated to us; Rajaʾ ibn Haywah related to me, saying:
“ʿUmar ibn ʿAbd al-ʿAziz used to be one of the most fragrant of men, the best dressed, and the most proud in his stride. Yet when he was appointed caliph, all his clothes together were appraised at twelve dirhams—garments from Egypt: his kummiyah (loose-sleeved robe), turban, shirt, qabāʾ (long over-robe), qurtuq (jacket), leather socks, and cloak.”
١٧٣٥ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ مَوْلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَعْقُوبَ هُوَ إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الْكِلَابِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي رَجَاءُ بْنُ حَيْوَةَ قَالَ: " كَانَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ مِنْ أَعْطَرِ النَّاسِ وَأَلْبَسِ النَّاسِ وَأَخْيَلِهِمْ مِشْيَةً فَلَمَّا اسْتُخْلِفَ قَوَّمُوا ثِيَابَهُ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ دِرْهَمًا مِنْ ثِيَابِ مِصْرَ: كُمِيَّتَهُ وَعِمَامَتَهُ وَقَمِيصَهُ وَقَبَاءَهُ وَقُرْطُقَهُ وَخُفَّيْهِ وَرِدَاءَهُ "
