حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجُ بْنُ النُّعْمَانِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ قَالَ

قِيلَ لِجَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ أَكَانَ فِي رَأْسِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْبٌ؟ قَالَ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي رَأْسِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ شَيْبٌ إِلا شَعَرَاتٌ فِي مَفْرِقِ رَأْسِهِ إِذَا ادَّهَنَ وَارَاهُنَّ الدُّهْنُ
