4116 - أَخْبَرَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي مَنْصُورٌ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رِبْعِيًّا يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا أَشَارَ الْمُسْلِمُ عَلَى أَخِيهِ الْمُسْلِمِ بِالسِّلَاحِ فَهُمَا عَلَى جُرُفِ جَهَنَّمَ، فَإِذَا قَتَلَهُ خَرَّا جَمِيعًا فِيهَا»
