abudawud:4736Ismāʿīl b. ʿUmar > Ibrāhīm b. Mūsá > Ibn Abū Zāʾidah > Mujālid > ʿĀmir / al-Shaʿbī > ʿĀmir b. Shahr

I was with the Negus when his son recited a verse of the Gospel. So I laughed. Thereupon he said : Do you laugh at the word of Allah, the Exalted?  

أبو داود:٤٧٣٦حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عُمَرَ أَخْبَرَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ عَنْ مُجَالِدٍ عَنْ عَامِرٍ يَعْنِي الشَّعْبِيَّ عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ شَهْرٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّجَاشِيِّ فَقَرَأَ ابْنٌ لَهُ آيَةً مِنَ الإِنْجِيلِ فَضَحِكْتُ فَقَالَ

أَتَضْحَكُ مِنْ كَلاَمِ اللَّهِ
