أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، قَالَا: ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، أَنْبَأَ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، أَنْبَأَ الشَّافِعِيُّ، أَنْبَأَ مَالِكٌ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ:
أَنَّ رَجُلًا وَجَدَ لُقَطَةً، فَجَاءَ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: إِنِّي وَجَدْتُ لُقَطَةً، فَمَاذَا تَرَى ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ عُمَرَ: عَرِّفْهَا، قَالَ: قَدْ فَعَلْتُ، قَالَ: زِدْ، قَالَ: قَدْ فَعَلْتُ، قَالَ: لَا آمُرُكَ أَنْ تَأْكُلَهَا، وَلَوْ شِئْتَ لَمْ تَأْخُذْهَا
