حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْخَلَّالُ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَی حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ قَهْرَمَانُ آلِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَالِمَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ طَعَامَ الْوَاحِدِ يَکْفِي الِاثْنَيْنِ وَإِنَّ طَعَامَ الِاثْنَيْنِ يَکْفِي الثَّلَاثَةَ وَالْأَرْبَعَةَ وَإِنَّ طَعَامَ الْأَرْبَعَةِ يَکْفِي الْخَمْسَةَ وَالسِّتَّةَ
