4887 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَجْلَانَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَيَعْجِزُ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَكُونَ مِثْلَ أَبِي ضَمْضَمٍ؟» قَالُوا: وَمَنْ أَبُو ضَمْضَمٍ؟ قَالَ: «رَجُلٌ فِيمَنْ كَانَ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ» بِمَعْنَاهُ قَالَ: «عِرْضِي لِمَنْ شَتَمَنِي» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: رَوَاهُ هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ، قَالَ: عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْعَمِّيِّ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسٌ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَعْنَاهُ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: وَحَدِيثُ حَمَّادٍ أَصَحُّ
