وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَةَ بْنَ أَبِي لُبَابَةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ زِرِّ بْنِ حُبَيْشٍ عَنْ أُبَىِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ ؓ قَالَ

قَالَ أُبَيٌّ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ: وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُهَا. قَالَ شُعْبَةُ: وَأَكْبَرُ عِلْمِي هِيَ اللَّيْلَةُ الَّتِي أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِقِيَامِهَا، هِيَ لَيْلَةُ سَبْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ.
