أَخْبَرَنَا مُجَاهِدُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحِلُّ بْنُ خَلِيفَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو السَّمْحِ قَالَ
كُنْتُ أَخْدُمُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَكَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ قَالَ وَلِّنِي قَفَاكَ فَأُوَلِّيهِ قَفَاىَ فَأَسْتُرُهُ بِهِ
