[Machine] I sat with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and the Messenger of Allah cut for me from the side of a sheep with a knife. Bilal called the Adhan for Fajr prayer, so he threw the knife and said, "Why do his hands not have soil on them?" My mustache was long, and I had fulfilled my vow, so he said, "Shall I trim it for you?" So he trimmed it on a siwak stick.  

الطبراني:١٨٢٥٩ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ ثَنَا مِسْعَرُ بْنُ كِدَامٍ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ عِلَاقَةَ عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ

ضِفْت بِآلِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَزَّ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ مِنْ جَنْبِ شَاةٍ بِالشَّفْرَةِ فَأَذَّنَ بِلَالٌ بِالْفَجْرِ فَأَلْقَى الشَّفْرَةَ وَقَالَ «مَا لَهُ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاهُ؟» وَكَانَ شَارِبِي طَوِيلًا قَدْ وَفَي فَقَالَ «أَقُصُّهُ لَكَ؟» فَقَصَّهُ عَلَى سِوَاكٍ

ahmad:18212 – Wakīʿ > Misʿar > Abū Ṣakhrah Jāmiʿ b. Shaddād > Mughīrah b. ʿAbdullāh > al-Mughīrah b. Shuʿbah

One night I became the guest of the Prophet ﷺ. He ordered that a piece of mutton be roasted, and it was roasted. He then took a knife and began to cut the meat with it for me. In the meantime Bilal came and called him for prayer. He threw the knife and said: What happened! may his hands be smeared with earth! He then stood for offering prayer. Al-Anbari added: My moustaches became lengthy. He trimmed them by placing a took-stick; or he said: I shall trim your moustaches by placing the tooth-stick there. Al-Anbari said: My moustaches became lengthy. He trimmed them by placing a tooth-stick ; or he said: I shall trim your moustaches by placing the tooth-stick there. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 188)   

أحمد:١٨٢١٢ – حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ عَنْ أَبِي صَخْرَةَ جَامِعِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ

ضِفْتُ بِالنَّبِيِّ ﷺ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَأَمَرَ بِجَنْبٍ فَشُوِيَ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ الشَّفْرَةَ فَجَعَلَ يَحُزُّ لِي بِهَا مِنْهُ قَالَ فَجَاءَهُ بِلَالٌ يُؤْذِنُهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ فَأَلْقَى الشَّفْرَةَ وَقَالَ مَا لَهُ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاهُ؟ قَالَ مُغِيرَةُ وَكَانَ شَارِبِي وَفَى فَقَصَّهُ لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى سِوَاكٍ أَوْ قَالَ أَقُصُّهُ لَكَ عَلَى سِوَاكٍ
