الطبراني:١٦٤٣٦حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زُرْعَةَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ثنا آدَمُ بْنُ أَبِي إِيَاسٍ ثنا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ كَعْبٍ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ قَالَ خَرَجْتُ مَعَ كَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ يَوْمَ الْعِيدِ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى §فَجَلَسَ قَبْلَ
