أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ سَلْمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ وَسَّاجٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ قَالَ
«قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وَكَانَ أَسَنَّ أَصْحَابِهِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَغَلَّفَهَا بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَالْكَتَمِ حَتَّى قَنَأَ لَوْنُهَا سَوَادًا فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحْتُ غَدَوْتُ فَقُلْتُ قَنَأَ لَوْنُهَا سَوَادًا قَالَ لَمْ أَقُلْ سَوَادًا»
