البيهقي:١٨٠٨١ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ شَيْبَانَ ثنا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ قَالَ

إِنْ فَرَّ رَجُلٌ مِنِ اثْنَيْنِ فَقَدْ فَرَّ وَإِنْ فَرَّ مِنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ لَمْ يَفِرَّ
