ahmad:12087Sufyān > ʿĀṣim > Anas

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not find on the expedition what he found among them, they were called the Qurra. Sufyan said, "We descended among them and told our people that we are satisfied and they are satisfied with us." It was said to Sufyan, "In who did it descend?" He said, "It descended upon the people of Bi'r Ma'una."  

أحمد:١٢٠٨٧حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ

مَا وَجَدَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى سَرِيَّةٍ مَا وَجَدَ عَلَيْهِمْ كَانُوا يُسَمَّوْنَ الْقُرَّاءَ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ نَزَلَ فِيهِمْ بَلِّغُوا قَوْمَنَا عَنَّا أَنَّا قَدْ رَضِينَا وَرَضِيَ عَنَّا قِيلَ لِسُفْيَانَ فِيمَنْ نَزَلَتْ؟ قَالَ فِي أَهْلِ بِئْرِ مَعُونَةَ
