أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ بِشْرانَ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ السَّمَّاكِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَنْبَلُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا رَجَاءٍ الْعُطَارِدِيَّ،
يَقُولُ: " كُنَّا فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ إِذَا دَخَلَ رَجَبٌ نَقُولُ جَاءَ مُنَصِّلُ الْأَسِنَّةِ لَا نَدَعُ حَدِيدَةً فِي سَهْمٍ، وَلَا حَدِيدَةً فِي رُمْحٍ إِلَّا انْتَزَعْنَاها فَأَلْقَيْنَاها "
