عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَخْطَبَ يَعْنِي أَبَا زَيْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَالِثٍ قَالَ اسْتَسْقَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِإِنَاءٍ فِيهِ مَاءٌ وَفِيهِ شَعْرَةٌ فَرَفَعْتُهَا ثُمَّ نَاوَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ ”اللَّهُمَّ جَمِّلْهُ“ قَالَ فَرَأَيْتُهُ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثٍ وَتِسْعِينَ سَنَةً وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ فَرَأَيْتُهُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَرْبَعٍ وَتِسْعِينَ وَمَا فِي رَأْسِهِ وَلِحْيَتِهِ شَعْرَةٌ بَيْضَاءُ
(Third chain) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Zaid Amr bin Akhtab, may Allah be pleased with him, he says: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, asked for water. I brought a vessel of water to him, in which there was water and a hair. I removed the hair and presented the water to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. So the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, prayed for me like this: O Allah! Make him beautiful. The narrator says: I saw Abu Zaid, may Allah be pleased with him, at the age of (93) years, and according to another narration, at the age of (94) years, that there was not a single white hair on his head or beard.
