حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ بِشْرِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَقِيلِ بْنِ خُوَيْلِدٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ النَّحْوِيُّ أَنَّ عِكْرِمَةَ حَدَّثَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

لَمَّا قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ كَانُوا مِنْ أَخْبَثِ النَّاسِ كَيْلاً فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ سُبْحَانَهُ {وَيْلٌ لِلْمُطَفِّفِينَ} فَأَحْسَنُوا الْكَيْلَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ
