حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی عَنْ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنِي قَيْسُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَکْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لِوَفْدِ بُزَاخَةَ تَتْبَعُونَ أَذْنَابَ الْإِبِلِ حَتَّی يُرِيَ اللَّهُ خَلِيفَةَ نَبِيِّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالْمُهَاجِرِينَ أَمْرًا يَعْذِرُونَکُمْ بِهِ
