حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا بَحْرُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ ثنا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مَوْلَى شَدَّادِ بْنِ الْهَادِ قَالَ

«رَأَيْتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَعَلَيْهِ إِزَارٌ عَدَنِيٌّ غَلِيظٌ قِيمَتُهُ أَرْبَعَةُ دَرَاهِمَ أَوْ خَمْسَةُ دَرَاهِمَ وَرَيْطَةٌ كُوفِيَّةٌ مُمَشَّقَةٌ ضَرْبُ اللَّحْمِ طَوِيلُ اللِّحْيَةِ حَسَنُ الْوَجْهِ»
