Arabic text

3477 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ اللُّؤْلُؤِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا حَرِيزُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ حِبَّانَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ الشَّرْعَبِيِّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، مِنْ قَرْنٍ ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَرِيزُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خِدَاشٍ، وَهَذَا لَفْظُ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: غَزَوْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثًا أَسْمَعُهُ، يَقُولُ: " الْمُسْلِمُونَ شُرَكَاءُ فِي ثَلَاثٍ: فِي الْكَلَإِ، وَالْمَاءِ، وَالنَّارِ "
