حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيجٌ حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْعَوَّامِ عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنِ مِقْسَمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَطَبَ مَيْمُونَةَ بِنْتَ الْحَارِثِ فَجَعَلَتْ أَمْرَهَا إِلَى الْعَبَّاسِ فَزَوَّجَهَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
