وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، كِلاَهُمَا عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَزَادَ فِي حَدِيثِ شُعْبَةَ فَقِيلَ لاِبْنِ عُمَرَ مَا صَلاَحُهُ قَالَ تَذْهَبُ عَاهَتُهُ ‏.‏
