حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أُسَيْدٍ قَالَ: نَا أَبُو أَنَسٍ كَثِيرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ: نَا خَلَفُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ قَالَ: نَا سُلَيْمٌ الْمَكِّيُّ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
" مَنْ آتَاهُ اللهُ وَجْهًا حَسَنًا، وَاسْمًا حَسَنًا، وَجَعَلَهُ فِي مَوْضِعٍ غَيْرِ شَائِنٍ لَهُ، فَهُوَ مِنْ صَفْوَةِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْ خَلْقِهِ "، وَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: " قَالَ الشَّاعِرُ: أَنْتَ شَرْطُ النَّبِيِّ، إِذْ قَالَ يَوْمًا اطْلُبُوا الْخَيْرَ فِي حِسَانِ الْوُجُوهِ
