الكبرى للنسائي:٨٨٩أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ بَصْرِيٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزُ بْنُ أَسَدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ «اسْتَوُوا اسْتَوُوا اسْتَوُوا فَوَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنِّي لَأَرَاكُمْ مِنْ خَلْفِي كَمَا أَرَاكُمْ بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ»
