البيهقي:١٦٦٦أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُكْرَمٍ ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ثنا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ قَالَ

كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَجُلًا مَذَّاءً فَكَانَ يَأْخُذُ الْفَتِيلَةَ فَيُدْخِلُهَا فِي إِحْلِيلِهِ
