"عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ بَرْقَانَ قَالَ: كَانَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يَتَوَضَّأُ مِمَّا مَسَّتِ النَّارُ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ ابْنَ عَبَّاسِ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ: أَرَأَيْتَ إِذْ أَخَذْت دَهْنَةً طَيِّبَةً فَدَهَنْت بِهَا لِحْيَتِى أَكُنْتُ متوضِّئًا؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: يَا بْنَ أَخِى! إِذَا حَدَّثْتَ بِالْحَدِيثِ عن رسول الله ﷺ فَلا تَضْرِبْ لَهُ بالأَمْثَالَ جَدَلًا".
