Arabic text

5062 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي الْبَرَاءُ قَالَ: «مَا رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا أَحْسَنَ فِي حُلَّةٍ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ» قَالَ: «وَرَأَيْتُ لَهُ لِمَّةً تَضْرِبُ قَرِيبًا مِنْ مَنْكِبَيْهِ»
