٣٥٢٤ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ﵄ قَالَ «إِذَا سَرَّكَ أَنْ تَعْلَمَ جَهْلَ الْعَرَبِ فَاقْرَأْ مَا فَوْقَ الثَّلَاثِينَ وَمِائَةٍ فِي سُورَةِ الْأَنْعَامِ ﴿قَدْ خَسِرَ الَّذِينَ قَتَلُوا أَوْلادَهُمْ سَفَهًا بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ﴾ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ ﴿قَدْ ضَلُّوا وَمَا كَانُوا مُهْتَدِينَ﴾.»
