حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ ، أَنَّ ابْنَ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَهُمْ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي يَعْلَى بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، يَزِيدُ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَى صَاحِبِهِ وَغَيْرُهُمَا ، قَالَ : قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ يُحَدِّثُهُ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ لِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ حَدَّثَنِي أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : "

فَانْطَلَقَا ، فَوَجَدَا جِدَارًا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَنْقَضَّ ، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ : بِيَدِهِ هَكَذَا ، وَرَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ فَاسْتَقَامَ ، قَالَ يَعْلَى : حَسِبْتُ أَنْ سَعِيدًا ، قَالَ : فَمَسَحَهُ بِيَدِهِ فَاسْتَقَامَ ، لَوْ شِئْتَ لَاتَّخَذْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا ، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ : أَجْرًا نَأْكُلُهُ
