وَعَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ قَالَ : خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - عَلَى مَشْيَخَةٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ بِيضٌ لِحَاهُمْ فَقَالَ : " يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ حَمِّرُوا وَصَفِّرُوا وَخَالِفُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ " قَالَ : فَقُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ يَتَسَرْوَلُونَ وَلَا يَأْتَزِرُونَ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " تَسَرْوَلُوا وَائْتَزِرُوا وَخَالِفُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ " قُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ يَتَخَفَّفُونَ وَلَا يَنْتَعِلُونَ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " فَتَخَفَّفُوا وَانْتَعِلُوا وَخَالِفُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ " فَقُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ يَقُصُّونَ عَثَانِينَهُمْ وَيُوَفِّرُونَ سِبَالَهُمْ ؟ قَالَ : فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " قُصُّوا سِبَالَكُمْ وَوَفِّرُوا عَثَانِينَكُمْ وَخَالِفُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَرِجَالُ أَحْمَدَ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ خَلَا الْقَاسِمِ ، وَهُوَ ثِقَةٌ ، وَفِيهِ كَلَامٌ لَا يَضُرُّ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to some elders of the Ansar whose beards were white, and he said: "O assembly of the Ansar! Dye (the hair of your beards) red or yellow, and differ from the People of the Book." The narrator says: We said: "O Messenger of Allah, the People of the Book wear trousers and do not wear the lower wrap (izar)?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Wear trousers and also wear the lower wrap, and differ from the People of the Book!" We said: "O Messenger of Allah, the People of the Book wear leather socks (khuffs) and do not wear sandals." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Wear leather socks and also wear sandals, and differ from the People of the Book!" We said: "O Messenger of Allah, the People of the Book trim their beards and let their moustaches grow long." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Trim your moustaches and let your beards grow, and differ from the People of the Book."
Imam Ahmad and Imam al-Tabarani recorded it. The narrators of Imam Ahmad are the narrators of the Sahih, except al-Qasim, and he is thiqah (trustworthy); some criticism has been made of him that is not harmful.
