حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ بَکْرُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ وَنَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا زَکَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَی بْنِ عُمَارَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَوَّامِ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ سَلْمَانَ قَالَ سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الْجَرَادِ فَقَالَ أَکْثَرُ جُنُودِ اللَّهِ لَا آکُلُهُ وَلَا أُحَرِّمُهُ
