قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ:
إِنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ سَمِعَ رَجُلًا يَقُولُ: الْحَرْفُ الْأَوَّلُ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ: ( مَا ) الْحَرْفُ الْأَوَّلُ ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ: يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ إِنَّ عُمَرَ ؓ بَعَثَ ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ مُعَلِّمًا إِلَى أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ، فَحَفِظُوا قِرَاءَتَهُ، فَغَيَّرَ عُثْمَانُ ؓ الْقِرَاءَةَ، فَهُمْ يَدْعُونَهُ الْحَرْفَ الْأَوَّلَ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ: إِنَّهُ لَآخِرُ حَرْفٍ عَرَضَ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ جِبْرِيلُ
