Arabic text

3869 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: انْشَقَّ القَمَرُ وَنَحْنُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمِنًى، فَقَالَ: «اشْهَدُوا» وَذَهَبَتْ فِرْقَةٌ نَحْوَ الجَبَلِ وَقَالَ: أَبُو الضُّحَى، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، انْشَقَّ بِمَكَّةَ، وَتَابَعَهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ
