عَنْ مُعَاذٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمَّا وَجَّهَهُ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ أَمْرَهُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنْ كُلِّ حَالِمٍ يَعْنِي مُحْتَلِمٍ دِينَارًا أَوْ عَدْلَهُ مِنَ الْمَعَافِرِيِّ: ثِيَابٌ تَكُونُ بِالْيمن
When God’s Messenger sent him to the Yemen he ordered him to take from every halim, meaning one who had reached puberty, a dinar or its equivalent in Maafiri,* i.e. garments of Yemen origin. *This word, which is usually an adjective qualifying thaub (garment), is here used by itself with an explanation of the meaning following Maafir is the name of a tribe which was a section of Hamdan, the Yemen tribal group.
