[ سَعْيُ هِشَامٍ فِي ضَمِّ أَبِي الْبَخْتَرِيِّ إلَيْهِ ] فَذَهَبَ إلَى الْبَخْتَرِيِّ بْنِ هِشَامٍ، فَسَأَلَ لَهُ نَحْوًا مِمَّا قَالَ لِلْمُطْعِمِ بْنِ عَدِيٍّ، فَقَالَ: وَهَلْ مِنْ أَحَدٍ يُعِينُ عَلَى هَذَا ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: مَنْ هُوَ ؟ قَالَ: زُهَيْرُ بْنُ أَبِي أُمَيَّةَ، وَالْمُطْعِمُ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ، وَأَنَا مَعَكَ، قَالَ: أَبْغِنَا خَامِسًا. [ سَعْيُ هِشَامٍ فِي ضَمِّ زَمْعَةَ لَهُ ] فَذَهَبَ إلَى زَمْعَةَ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ الْمُطَّلِبِ بْنِ أَسَدٍ، فَكَلَّمَهُ، ذَكَرَ لَهُ قَرَابَتَهُمْ وَحَقَّهُمْ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: وَهَلْ عَلَى هَذَا الْأَمْرِ الَّذِي تَدْعُونِي إلَيْهِ مِنْ أَحَدٍ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ، ثُمَّ سَمَّى لَهُ الْقَوْمَ.
