حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ، قَالَ: نَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْأَذَنِيُّ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ الْمَجِيدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ أَبِي رَوَّادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ. عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ:
رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ بِأَصَابِعِهِ الثَّلَاثِ: بِالْإِبْهَامِ، وَالَّتِي تَلِيهَا، وَالْوُسْطَى، ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُهُ يَلْعَقُ أَصَابِعَهُ الثَّلَاثَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَمْسَحَهَا، وَيَلْعَقُ الْوُسْطَى، ثُمَّ الَّتِي تَلِيهَا، ثُمَّ الْإِبْهَامَ
