وَأَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، أَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، ثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ مِنْ كِتَابِهِ، ثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مَعْقِلٍ قَالَ:

جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: كَيْفَ تَقُولُ فِي الْجَدِّ ؟ قَالَ: إِنَّهُ لَا جَدَّ، أَيُّ أَبٍ لَكَ أَكْبَرُ ؟ فَسَكَتَ الرَّجُلُ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ، وَكَأَنَّهُ عَيِيَ عَنْ جَوَابِهِ، فَقُلْتُ: أَنَا آدَمُ، قَالَ: أَفَلَا تَسْمَعُ إِلَى قَوْلِ اللهِ يَا بَنِي آدَمَ

A man came to Ibn ʿAbbās and said to him: "What do you say about the grandfather?" He said: "There is no grandfather. Which father of yours is oldest?" The man fell silent and did not answer him, as if he were unable to answer. So I said: "I am Ādam." He said: "Do you not hear the saying of Allah: O children of Ādam?"
