4788 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، عَنْ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي حِصْنٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ، ح وَأَنْبَأَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي حِصْنٌ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ: أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «وَعَلَى الْمُقْتَتِلِينَ أَنْ يَنْحَجِزُوا الْأَوَّلَ فَالْأَوَّلَ، وَإِنْ كَانَتِ امْرَأَةٌ»
