الكبرى للنسائي:٩٦٨ – أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ مَيْسَرَةَ عَنِ الْمِنْهَالِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ

أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ رَأَى رَجُلًا يُصَلِّي قَدْ صَفَّ بَيْنَ قَدَمَيْهِ فَقَالَ «خَالَفْتَ السَّنَةَ لَوْ رَاوَحْتَ بَيْنَهُمَا كَانَ أَفْضَلُ»
