أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْجَوَّابِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
«نَهَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ الرَّجُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ أَوْ يَشْرَبَ بِشِمَالِهِ فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ يَأْكُلُ بِشِمَالِهِ وَيُشْرَبُ بِشِمَالِهِ»
