ذِكْرُ الْبَيَانِ بِأَنَّ قَوْلَ أَبِي زَيْدٍ عَلَى كَتِفِهِ أَرَادَ بِهِ بَيْنَ كَتِفَيْهِ

ابن حبّان:٦٣٠١أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَخْبَرَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ يَقُولُ «رَأَيْتُ الْخَاتَمَ الَّذِي بَيْنَ كَتِفَيِّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مِثْلَ بَيْضَةِ الْحَمَامَةِ لَوْنُهَا لَوْنُ جَسَدِهِ»
