حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَهُوَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ قَالَ قِيلَ لَهُ مَا سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ فِي زَعَمُوا قَالَ بِئْسَ مَطِيَّةُ الرَّجُلِ.
