عَنْ أَبِی عَلِیَّ الأَزْدِیِّ ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ یَقُولُ لِلْحَالِقِ : یَا غُلامُ ، ابْلُغِ الْعَظْمَ ۔ وَإِذَا قَصَّرَ أَخَذَ مِنْ جَانِبِہِ الأَیْمَنِ قَبْلَ جَانِبَہِ الأَیْسَرِ۔
مسند امام شافی · Hadith 1016
On the authority of Abu Ali Al-Azdi, he said: I heard Ibn Umar say to the hairdresser: O boy, tell the bone۔ And if he falls short, he takes it on the right side before the left side۔
