( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ، أَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى وَابْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَا: ثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، ثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عِيَاضًا الْأَشْعَرِيَّ، قَالَ:
قَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ: مَنْ يُرَاهِنُنِي ؟ قَالَ: فَقَالَ شَابٌّ: أَنَا، إِنْ لَمْ تَغْضَبْ. قَالَ: فَسَبَقَهُ. قَالَ: فَرَأَيْتُ عَقِيصَتَيْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ تَنْقُزَانِ، وَهُوَ خَلْفَهُ عَلَى فَرَسٍ عَرَبِيٍّ
