حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو تَوْبَةَ عَنِ الْهَيْثَمِ بْنِ حُمَيْدٍ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا خُشَيْشُ بْنُ أَصْرَمَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ جَمِيعًا عَنْ ثَوْرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ نَصْرٍ الْكِنَانِيِّ عَنْ رَجُلٍوَقَالَ أَبُو تَوْبَةَ عَنْ ثَوْرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ عَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ عَبْدٍ السُّلَمِيِّ وَهَذَا لَفْظُهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ

لاَ تَقُصُّوا نَوَاصِيَ الْخَيْلِ وَلاَ مَعَارِفَهَا وَلاَ أَذْنَابَهَا فَإِنَّ أَذْنَابَهَا مَذَابُّهَا وَمَعَارِفَهَا دِفَاؤُهَا وَنَوَاصِيهَا مَعْقُودٌ فِيهَا الْخَيْرُ
