البيهقي:٢٠٤٢١أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ أنبأ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ ثنا هُشَيْمٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عنِ ابنِ سِيرِينَ قَالَ أَحْمَدُ قَالَ مَرَّةً عَنْ بَعْضِ وَلَدِ الْعَلَاءِ

أَنَّ الْعَلَاءَ بْنَ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ ؓ كَانَ عَامِلَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ عَلَى الْبَحْرَيْنِ كَانَ إِذَا كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ بَدَأَ بِنَفْسِهِ
