حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ طَهْمَانَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى عَنْ أَبِي النُّعْمَانِ عَنْ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا وَعَدَ الرَّجُلُ أَخَاهُ وَمِنْ نِيَّتِهِ أَنْ يَفِيَ لَهُ فَلَمْ يَفِ وَلَمْ يَجِئْ لِلْمِيعَادِ فَلاَ إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ
