Sahih Muslim 315b
وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الدَّارِمِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَسَّانَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ سَلاَّمٍ، فِي هَذَا الإِسْنَادِ بِمِثْلِهِ غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ كُنْتُ قَاعِدًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَقَالَ زَائِدَةُ كَبِدِ النُّونِ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ أَذْكَرَ وَآنَثَ ‏.‏ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ أَذْكَرَا وَآنَثَا ‏.‏
This tradition has been narrated by Mu'awyia b. Salim with the same chain of transmitters except for the words:

I was sitting beside the Messenger of Allah" and some other minor alterations.
