قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ بْنِ الرَّاهِبِ قَالَ:
إِنَّ رَجُلًا سَلَّمَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى تَمَسَّحَ، وَقَالَ: « لَمْ يَمْنَعْنِي أَنْ أَرُدَّ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا أَنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ مُتَوَضِّئًا ». أَوْ قَالَ: لَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ حَتَّى تَمَسَّحَ وَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ
