حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ أَبِي بُکَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ أَنَّ عُمَرَ قَالَ لِصُهَيْبٍ مَا لَکَ تَکْتَنِي بِأَبِي يَحْيَی وَلَيْسَ لَکَ وَلَدٌ قَالَ کَنَّانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِأَبِي يَحْيَی
