حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ سَهْلٍ الرَّمْلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، قَالَ : أُخْبِرْتُ عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ ضَمْرَةَ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ : أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : "

لَا تُبْرِزْ فَخِذَكَ ، وَلَا تَنْظُرَنَّ إِلَى فَخِذِ حَيٍّ ، وَلَا مَيِّتٍ
