حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ وَسُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ وَائِلِ بْنِ حُجْرٍ قَالَ
رَآنِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَلِي شَعَرٌ طَوِيلٌ فَقَالَ ذُبَابٌ ذُبَابٌ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَأَخَذْتُهُ فَرَآنِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنِّي لَمْ أَعْنِكَ وَهَذَا أَحْسَنُ
