حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْکَرِيمِ الْجَزَرِيِّ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ عَنْ ابْنِ مَعْقِلٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ مَعَ أَبِي عَلَی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ النَّدَمُ تَوْبَةٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبِي أَنْتَ سَمِعْتَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ النَّدَمُ تَوْبَةٌ قَالَ نَعَمْ
