Arabic text

4777 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُؤَمَّلُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ سَعِيدُ بْنُ إِيَاسٍ الْجُرَيْرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي فِرَاسٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ قَالَ: «رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُقِصُّ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ»

Commentary
