عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ - رضى الله عنه - عَنْ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ - صلى الله عليه وسلم -قَالَ: { لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي لَأَمَرْتُهُمْ بِالسِّوَاكِ مَعَ كُلِّ وُضُوءٍ } أَخْرَجَهُ مَالِكٌ, وأَحْمَدُ, وَالنَّسَائِيُّ, وَصَحَّحَهُ اِبْنُ خُزَيْمَة َ 1 .1 - صحيح. علقه البخاري (458/فتح) بصيغة الجزم، وعنده لفظ "عند" بدل "مع". ورواه أحمد (2 /460 و 517)، والنسائي في "الكبرى" (298)، وابن خزيمة (140). وللحديث ألفاظ وطرق أخرى في "الصحيحين" وغيرهما، وقد ذكرتها "بالأصل".
