( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ، أَنْبَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، ثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ:
أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَكْرَهُ شَهَادَةَ الرَّجُلِ عَلَى الْوَصِيَّةِ فِي صَحِيفَةٍ مَخْتُومَةٍ حَتَّى يَعْلَمَ مَا فِيهَا
