حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ الْأَزْدِيُّ ثنا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ثنا زَائِدَةُ ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ عَنْ شَقِيقٍ قَالَ
خَطَبَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حِينَ شُقَّتِ الْمَصَاحِفُ وَالْمَسْجِدُ مُمْتَلِئٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ فَقَالَ «لَقَدْ عَلِمَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَنِّي أَعْلَمُهُمْ بِكِتَابِ اللهُ» قَالَ شَقِيقٌ ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ أَنَّهُ اسْتَحْيَى مِمَّا قَالَ فَقَالَ «وَمَا أَنَا بِخَيْرِهِمْ وَلَوْ أعْلَمُ رَجُلًا أَعْلَمُ بِكِتَابِ اللهُ مِنِّي تَبْلُغُهُ الْإِبِلُ لَأَتَيْتُهُ» قَالَ شَقِيقٌ «فَمَا فَرَغَ عَبْدُ اللهِ مِنْ خُطْبَتِهِ قَعَدْتُ فِي الْحِلَقِ لِأَسْمَعَ مَا يَقُولُونَ فَمَا سَمِعْتُ أَحَدًا مُنْكَرًا عَلَى ذَلِكَ»

✧ ʿAbdullah addressed us when the codices were being torn, and the mosque was full of the people of Badr. He said, “The Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ know that I am the most knowledgeable among them concerning the Book of Allah.” Shaqiq said: Then I saw that he felt ashamed of what he said, so he said, “But I am not the best of them. If I knew a man more knowledgeable in the Book of Allah than me, whom camels could reach, I would go to him.” Shaqiq said: “When ʿAbdullah finished his sermon, I sat in the circles to listen to what they said, and I heard no one disapproving of that.”
