حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، نَحْوَهُ ، قَالَ : سِيمَاهُمُ التَّحْلِيقُ وَالتَّسْبِيدُ ، فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُوهُمْ فَأَنِيمُوهُمْ , قال أَبُو دَاوُد : التَّسْبِيدُ اسْتِئْصَالُ الشَّعْرِ .
