حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ
أَنَّ كَعْبَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حِينَ أَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فِي الشِّعْرِ مَا أَنْزَلَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى قَدْ أَنْزَلَ فِي الشِّعْرِ مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتَ، وَكَيْفَ تَرَى فِيهِ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ يُجَاهِدُ بِسَيْفِهِ وَلِسَانِهِ.
