حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَزْرَةُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عِلْبَاءُ بْنُ أَحْمَرَ الْيَشْكُرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو زَيْدٍ عَمْرُو بْنُ أَخْطَبَ الأَنْصَارِيُّ قَالَ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ

يَا أَبَا زَيْدٍ ادْنُ مِنِّي فَامْسَحْ ظَهْرِي فَمَسَحْتُ ظَهْرَهُ فَوَقَعَتْ أَصَابِعِي عَلَى الْخَاتَمِ قُلْتُ وَمَا الْخَاتَمُ؟ قَالَ شَعَرَاتٌ مُجْتَمِعَاتٌ
