حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ الْأَحْوَلُ عَنْ لَاحِقِ بْنِ حُمَيْدٍ وَعِكْرِمَةَ قَالَا قَالَ عُمَرُ مَنْ يَعْلَمُ مَتَى لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ قَالَا فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ هِيَ فِي الْعَشْرِ فِي سَبْعٍ يَمْضِينَ أَوْ سَبْعٍ يَبْقَيْنَ
