703 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ حَبِيبٍ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: «جَدَبَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ السَّمَرَ بَعْدَ الْعِشَاءِ» يَعْنِي زَجَرَنَا
