Humayd ibn Ziyad has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Sama‘ah from more than one person from Aban ibn ‘Uthman from ‘Isma‘il ibn al-Fadl who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a woman if she can use silk clothes in the state of Ihram. He (the Imam) said, ‘No, but she can use them in times other than her being in the state of Ihram.’” وثق - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (7/293))
