حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ، ثَنَا مَيْسَرَةُ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ جَابَانَ، عَنْ لُقْمَانَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ ؓ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
إِنَّ الْجَاهِلَ لَا يَكْشِفُ إِلَّا عَنْ سَوْأَةٍ، وَإِنْ كَانَ حَصِيفًا ظَرِيفًا عِنْدَ النَّاسِ، وَإِنَّ الْعَاقِلَ لَا يَكْشِفُ إِلَّا عَنْ فَضْلٍ، وَإِنْ كَانَ عَيِّبًا مَهِينًا عِنْدَ النَّاسِ
