حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُثَنَّى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَبَهْزٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا هُمَامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِذَا قَاتَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلْيَجْتَنِبْ الْوَجْهَ قَالَ ابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ خَلَقَ آدَمَ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ.
