أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ
سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عُمَرَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ وَأَبِي وَأَبِي فَقَالَ «إِنَّ اللهَ يَنْهَاكُمْ أَنْ تَحْلِفُوا بِآبَائِكُمْ» قَالَ عُمَرُ فَوَاللهِ مَا حَلَفْتُ بِهَا بَعْدُ ذَاكِرًا وَلَا آثِرًا
