Explanation of the Hadith of 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both)

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : We will briefly address the following hadith because it is clear. 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said:
'Umar found a silk robe وجدَ عمر حلَّة استبرق
Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 349
Istibriq is a type of luxurious silk. 'Umar found a *hullah* (a set of two garments). A *hullah*, in today's terminology, is a suit; one piece covers the upper part of the body and the second piece covers the lower part. This set is called a *hullah* in Arabic. So, 'Umar saw a man in the market displaying a very beautiful *hullah* (two garments), and he wanted them to be for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). In some narrations of the hadith, this *hullah* was displayed for sale by a man named 'Atarid, who used to visit kings and receive gifts and donations from them. Everyone knew that the gifts of kings are luxurious. When 'Umar ibn al-Khattab saw this *hullah* displayed in the market, and it was of the kind of garments worn by Kisra and Caesar, the kings, he bought it for his Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to wear, so that he would adorn himself with it for the delegations and adorn himself with it on Friday when he delivered the sermon to the people. Therefore, Ibn 'Umar said, "So he brought it, meaning 'Umar brought the *hullah*, to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and said, 'Buy this and wear it on Friday or when delegations come to you.'" He (peace be upon him) said:
This is worn by the one who will have no share in the Hereafter. إنما يلبَسُها من لا خلاق له في الآخرة
Sahih al-Bukhari 2612
It is worn by him who has no share in the إنما يلبَسُها مَن لا خلاق
Sahih al-Bukhari 2104
Meaning: One who has no share in the Hereafter. What is the meaning of this hadith? "He has no share in the Hereafter" means he does not enter Paradise? If this is the meaning, how does this meaning align with the many hadiths that state that a Muslim enters Paradise no matter what he does, no matter what sins he commits? His (peace be upon him) saying:
Whoever says: There is no god but Allah; he enters Paradise مَن قال : لا إله إلا الله ؛ دخل الجنة
Sahih Ibn Hibban 4:44
. Abu Dharr said to him: "Even if he commits zina and steals?" He said:
Even if he commits adultery and theft? وإن زنى وإن سرق
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2644Sahih (Darussalam)
. He said: "Even if he commits zina and steals?" Three times, and each time the Messenger (peace be upon him) said:
Even if he commits adultery and theft? وإن زنى وإن سرق
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2644Sahih (Darussalam)
. The last time he said:
May your nose be broken, O Abu Dharr رغم أنفك يا أبا ذرٍّ
. How do we reconcile this hadith that is before us with the hadith that
Whoever says: There is no god but Allah; he enters Paradise مَن قال : لا إله إلا الله ؛ دخل الجنة
Sahih Ibn Hibban 4:44
? That will be the topic of our next lesson, if Allah wills.
