حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زُرْعَةَ قَالَ: نَا يَحْيَى بْنُ صَالِحٍ الْوُحَاظِيُّ قَالَ: نَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ بَشِيرٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ مُطَرِّفِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ: " أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ
كَانَ إِذَا سَأَلَ عَنِ اسْمِ الرَّجُلِ، فَإِنْ كَانَ حَسَنًا عُرِفَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِهِ، وَإِنْ كَانَ سَيِّئًا رُئِيَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِهِ، وَإِذَا سَأَلَ عَنِ اسْمِ الْقَرْيَةِ فَكَذَلِكَ
