أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَحْمَسِيُّ أَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَا أَبُو غَسَّانَ ثَنَا عَبَّادٌ عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ
سَمِعْتُ الشَّعْبِيَّ يَقُولُ الْقَضَاءُ فِي سِتَّةِ نَفَرٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَةً بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَثَلَاثَةً بِالْكُوفَةِ فَبِالْمَدِينَةِ عُمَرُ وَأُبَيٌّ وَزَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ وَبِالْكُوفَةِ عَلِيٌّ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ وَأَبُو مُوسَى قَالَ الشَّيْبَانِيُّ فَقُلْتُ لِلشَّعْبِيِّ أَبُو مُوسَى يُضَافُ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ «كَانَ أَحَدَ الْفُقَهَاءِ» فَحَدَّثَنِيهِ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ الشَّهِيدُ ؓ

✧ I heard Al-Sha'bi saying, "The judges among the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were six individuals; three in Al-Madinah and three in Al-Kufa. In Al-Madinah, they were Umar, Ubay ibn Ka'b, and Zaid ibn Thabit. In Al-Kufa, they were Ali, Abdullah, and Abu Musa." Al-Shaybani said, "So I asked Al-Sha'bi, 'Is Abu Musa included with them?' He said, 'He was one of the scholars.' Then Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Abbas ibn Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Asim al-Shahidi narrated it to me."
