2614 - حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ المَلِكِ بْنُ مَيْسَرَةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ زَيْدَ بْنَ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: «أَهْدَى إِلَيَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حُلَّةَ سِيَرَاءَ، فَلَبِسْتُهَا، فَرَأَيْتُ الغَضَبَ فِي وَجْهِهِ فَشَقَقْتُهَا بَيْنَ نِسَائِي»
