حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ سَوَادَةَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ مَوْلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ لِجَعْفَرِ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ أَشْبَهْتَ خَلْقِي وَخُلُقِي.
