أحمد:١٥٩٣١حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مَالِكٌ عَنْ أَبِي النَّضْرِ عَنْ زُرْعَةَ بْنِ جَرْهَدٍ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ الصُّفَّةِ قَالَ

جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَرَأَى فَخِذِي مُنْكَشِفَةً فَقَالَ خَمِّرْ عَلَيْكَ أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّ الْفَخِذَ عَوْرَةٌ
