النسائي:٥١٢٠أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ ظَبْيَانَ عَنْ حُكَيْمِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِهِ رَدْعٌ مِنْ خَلُوقٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ اذْهَبْ فَانْهَكْهُ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ فَقَالَ اذْهَبْ فَانْهَكْهُ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ فَقَالَ اذْهَبْ فَانْهَكْهُ ثُمَّ لاَ تَعُدْ
