حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّهُ رَأَى فِي يَدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم خَاتَمًا مِنْ وَرِقٍ يَوْمًا وَاحِدًا، ثُمَّ إِنَّ النَّاسَ اصْطَنَعُوا الْخَوَاتِيمَ مِنْ وَرِقٍ وَلَبِسُوهَا، فَطَرَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم خَاتَمَهُ، فَطَرَحَ النَّاسُ خَوَاتِيمَهُمْ‏.‏ تَابَعَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ وَزِيَادٌ وَشُعَيْبٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ‏.‏ وَقَالَ ابْنُ مُسَافِرٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ أَرَى خَاتَمًا مِنْ وَرِقٍ‏.‏
