حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَامِرَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ جَرِيرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ

سَمِعْتُ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنَ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ يَقُولُ وَهُوَ يَخْطُبُ: تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ ابْنُ ثَلَاثٍ وَسِتِّينَ، وَتُوُفِّيَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَهُوَ ابْنُ ثَلَاثٍ وَسِتِّينَ، وَتُوُفِّيَ عُمَرُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ ثَلَاثٍ وَسِتِّينَ. قَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ: وَأَنَا الْيَوْمَ فِي ثَلَاثٍ وَسِتِّينَ
