Arabic text
5047 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يُوسُفَ بْنَ صُهَيْبٍ، يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ لَمْ يَأْخُذْ شَارِبَهُ فَلَيْسَ مِنَّا»

Commentary
1. 'The one who does not take from his mustache' means when there is a need to trim it; when it begins to fall into the mouth, etc. Otherwise, it is not necessary to trim it everyday, nor is it enough to cut it once or twice during the whole lifetime. 2. 'Is not of us' means he does not adhere to our practice, or does not appear to be a Muslim when looked at. This is reproach, and while reproaching, severe words are often utilized.
