حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَجَاءٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ
كُنَّا أَصْحَابَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ نَتَحَدَّثُ أَنَّ عِدَّةَ أَصْحَابِ بَدْرٍ عَلَى عِدَّةِ أَصْحَابِ طَالُوتَ الَّذِينَ جَاوَزُوا مَعَهُ النَّهَرَ وَلَمْ يُجَاوِزْ مَعَهُ إِلاَّ مُؤْمِنٌ بِضْعَةَ عَشَرَ وَثَلاَثَمِائَةٍ
