البيهقي:١٢٨٥١ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نَصْرِ بْنُ قَتَادَةَ أنا أَبُو الْفَضْلِ بْنُ خَمِيرَوَيْهِ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلَالٍ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْبَاهِلِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي ضَبَّةُ بْنُ مِحْصَنٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِعُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ أَبُو مُوسَى اصْطَفَى أَرْبَعِينَ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ الْأَسَاوِرَةِ لِنَفْسِهِ فَقَدِمَ عَلَيْهِ أَبُو مُوسَى فَقَالَ مَا بَالُ أَرْبَعِينَ اصْطَفَيْتَهُمْ لِنَفْسِكَ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ الْأَسَاوِرَةِ؟ فَقَالَ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ اصْطَفَيْتُهُمْ وَخَشِيتُ

أَنْ يُخْدَعَ عَنْهُمُ الْجُنْدُ فَفَادَيْتُهُمْ وَاجْتَهَدْتُ فِي فِدَائِهِمْ ثُمَّ خَمَّسْتُ وَقَسَمْتُ فَقَالَ ضَبَّةُ فَصَادِقٌ وَاللهِ فَمَا كَذَبَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَمَا كَذَّبْتُهُ
