أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ الشَّافِعِيُّ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ ثنا أَبُو حُذَيْفَةَ ثنا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَابِسٍ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ وَسُئِلَ

عَنْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ {إِنَّهَا تَرْمِي بِشَرَرٍ كَالْقَصَرِ} [المرسلات 32] قَالَ «كُنَّا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ نَقْصُرُ الْخَشَبَ ذِرَاعَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثَةً فَنَرْفَعُهُ فِي الشِّتَاءِ وَنُسَمِّيهِ الْقَصْرَ» قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ وَسُئِلَ عَنْ {جِمَالَتٌ صُفْرٌ} [المرسلات 33] قَالَ «حِبَالُ السُّفُنِ يُجْمَعُ بَعْضُهَا إِلَى بَعْضٍ حَتَّى يَكُونَ كَأَوْسَاطِ الرِّحَالِ»
