Arabic text

3498 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عُمَرَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، عَنْ ثَوْرِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ الْحِمْيَرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعْدِ الْخَيْرِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «مَنِ اكْتَحَلَ فَلْيُوتِرْ، مَنْ فَعَلَ، فَقَدْ أَحْسَنَ، وَمَنْ لَا، فَلَا حَرَجَ»
