أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الطَّحَّانُ عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ «بَايَعْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَأَنَا أَرْفَعُ غُصْنَ الشَّجَرَةِ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ فَبَايَعْنَاهُ عَلَى أَنْ لَا نَفِرَّ لَمْ نُبَايعْهُ عَلَى الْمَوْتِ قُلْنَا لَهُ كَمْ كُنْتُمْ؟ قَالَ أَلْفٌ وَأَرْبَعُ مِائَةٍ»
