حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ مَرْثَدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ حَسَّانَ بْنِ كُرَيْبٍ

عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ قَالَ الْقَائِلُ الْفَاحِشَةَ وَالَّذِي يُشِيعُ بِهَا فِي الإِثْمِ سَوَاءٌ
