حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَهُمْ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ مَطَرٍ ويَعْلَی بْنِ حَکِيمٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنْ نُبَيْهِ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ أَبَانَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَکَرَ مِثْلَهُ زَادَ وَلَا يَخْطُبُ
