أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ أَبِي زَيْنَبَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عُثْمَانَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ رَآنِي النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَقَدْ وَضَعْتُ شِمَالِي عَلَى يَمِينِي فِي الصَّلاَةِ فَأَخَذَ بِيَمِينِي فَوَضَعَهَا عَلَى شِمَالِي .
