4714 - حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ {إِلَى رَبِّهِمُ الوَسِيلَةَ} [الإسراء: 57] قَالَ: «كَانَ نَاسٌ مِنَ الإِنْسِ يَعْبُدُونَ نَاسًا مِنَ الجِنِّ، فَأَسْلَمَ الجِنُّ وَتَمَسَّكَ هَؤُلاَءِ بِدِينِهِمْ» زَادَ الأَشْجَعِيُّ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ: {قُلِ ادْعُوا الَّذِينَ زَعَمْتُمْ} [الإسراء: 56]
