Sayyiduna Amr bin Fulan al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once he was walking along with his lower garment hanging down, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came up to him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was holding his own forelock and saying: O Allah! Your servant, the son of Your servant and of Your maidservant. Sayyiduna Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I submitted: O Messenger of Allah! I am a man with thin shins. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Amr! Allah Almighty has made beautiful everything He created. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) struck with four fingers of his right palm below the knee of Sayyiduna Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: O Amr! This is the place of the lower garment. Then he raised it and struck with four fingers a little below the first spot, and said: O Amr! This is the place of the lower garment. Then he lifted his hand and placed it lower still, and said: O Amr! This is the place of the lower garment.
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
