البيهقي:٦٦٩٥ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْمُحَارِبِيُّ ثنا عَمْرٌو أَبُو مَالِكٍ الْجَنْبِيُّ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ عَامِرٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ قَالَ لَا يُغَالَى فِي كَفَنٍ؛ فَإِنِّي

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا تُغَالُوا فِي الْكَفَنِ؛ فَإِنَّهُ يُسْلَبُ سَلْبًا سَرِيعًا
