السيوطي:٢-٤٢٨b

"عَن الْحَسَن قَالَ: لَمَّا قَدِمَ وَفْدُ أَهْلِ الْبَصْرَةِ عَلَى عُمَرَ، فِيهِمْ الأَحْنَفُ بْنُ

قَيْسٍ فَسَرَّحَهُمْ وَحَبَسَهُ عِنْدَهُ حَوْلًا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: هَلْ تَدْرِى لِمَ حَبَسْتُكَ؟ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ حَذَّرَنَا كُلَّ مُنَافِقٍ عَلِيمِ اللِّسَانِ، وَإِنِّى تَخَوَّفْتُ أنْ تَكُونَ مِنْهُمْ وَلَسْت مِنْهُمْ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ".  

ابن سعد، [ع] أبو يعلى
