حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ حُجَيْرٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ لِي مُعَاوِيَةُ أَعَلِمْتَ أَنِّي قَصَّرْتُ مِنْ رَأْسِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عِنْدَ الْمَرْوَةِ بِمِشْقَصٍ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ لاَ أَعْلَمُ هَذَا إِلاَّ حُجَّةً عَلَيْكَ .
Translation
Amr al-Naqid narrated to us: Sufyan ibn Uyayna narrated to us, from Hisham ibn Hujayr, from Tawus, who said: Ibn Abbas said: Muawiya said to me: Do you know that I clipped some of the Messenger of Allah hair at al-Marwa with a broad arrowhead? I said to him: I know this only as evidence against you.
