حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ
وَدِدْتُ أَنَّ النَّاسَ غَضُّوا مِنَ الثُّلُثِ إِلَى الرُّبُعِ لأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ الثُّلُثُ كَبِيرٌ أَوْ كَثِيرٌ

- Dāraquṭnī
رواه هشام بن عروة واختلف عنه فرواه المفضل بن موسى عن هشام عن أبيه عن عائشة ووهم فيه والصواب عن هشام عن أبيه عن ابن عباس كذلك قال الحفاظ عن هشام
machine translationHishām b. ʿUrwah narrated it, and there is disagreement about him. Al-Mufaḍḍal b. Mūsā narrated it from Hishām, from his father, from ʿĀʾishah, and he erred (wahima) in it. The correct version is from Hishām, from his father, from Ibn ʿAbbās. Thus the ḥuffāẓ reported it from Hishām.
