حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ هَارُونَ، نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ، نَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ الْأَحْوَلِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ قَالَ:
سَأَلْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ: هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَخْضِبُ ؟ قَالَ: " لَمْ يَبْلُغِ الْخِضَابَ، كَانَتْ فِي لِحْيَتِهِ شَعَرَاتٌ بِيضٌ ". فَقُلْتُ: أَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَخْضِبُ ؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ، بِالْحِنَّاءِ وَالْكَتَمِ ".
