حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ حَبِيبٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الشَّهِيدِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ قَالَ شَهِدْتُ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ وَابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَتَذْكُرُ حِينَ اسْتَقْبَلْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقَدْ جَاءَ مِنْ سَفَرٍ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَحَمَلَنِي وَفُلَانًا غُلَامًا مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ وَتَرَكَكَ
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 2146
It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Abi Mulaikah said: I saw Ibn az-Zubair (RA) and Ibn 'Abbas (RA), and Ibn az-Zubair said to Ibn al-' Abbas: Do you remember when we went out to welcome the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) when he came back from a journey? He said: Yes; he carried me and So and so - a boy from Banu Hashim - and left you.
