2845 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُقْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «حَرَّقَ نَخْلَ بَنِي النَّضِيرِ وَقَطَعَ» وَفِيهِ يَقُولُ شَاعِرُهُمْ: [البحر الوافر] فَهَانَ عَلَى سَرَاةِ بَنِي لُؤَيٍّ، ... حَرِيقٌ بِالْبُوَيْرَةِ مُسْتَطِيرُ بَابُ فِدَاءِ الْأُسَارَى
