أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ عُلَيِّ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَشْتَرِيَ فَرَسًا فَأَيُّهَا أَشْتَرِي؟ قَالَ «اشْتَرِ أَدْهَمَ أَرْثَمَ مُحَجَّلَ طَلْقَ الْيَدِ الْيُمْنَى أَوْ مِنَ الْكُمْتِ عَلَى هَذِهِ الشِّيَةِ تَغْنَمْ وَتَسْلَمْ»
