ahmad:13605ʿAffān > Yazīd b. Zurayʿ > Ḥumayd > Anas

أحمد:١٣٦٠٥حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْإِزَارُ إِلَى نِصْفِ السَّاقِ فَلَمَّا رَأَى شِدَّةَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ قَالَ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ لَا خَيْرَ فِيمَا أَسْفَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ

كَأَنَّهُ يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ الْإِزَارُ إِلَى نِصْفِ السَّاقِ فَشَقَّ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ أَوْ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ وَلَا خَيْرَ فِي أَسْفَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ
