حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُغِيرَةِ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " رَأَيْتُ عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ، وَمُوسَى، وَإِبْرَاهِيمَ، فَأَمَّا عِيسَى، فَأَحْمَرُ جَعْدٌ عَرِيضُ الصَّدْرِ، وَأَمَّا مُوسَى فَآدَمُ جَسِيمٌ " قَالُوا لَهُ: فَإِبْرَاهِيمُ؟ قَالَ: " انْظُرُوا إِلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ " يَعْنِي نَفْسَهُ (١)،
