البيهقي:٥٤٠٣أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْمُزَكِّي أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ أنبأ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ أنبأ مِسْعَرٌ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ

قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ هُوَ ابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ لَا يَغُرَّنَّكُمْ سَوَادُكُمْ هَذَا فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ مِنْ كُوفَتِكُمْ
