حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا وَائِلُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ اللَّيْثِيُّ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ قَالَ‏:‏ قَالَ لِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ‏:‏ مِمَّنْ أَنْتَ‏؟‏ قُلْتُ‏:‏ مِنْ تَيْمِ تَمِيمٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ أَوْ مِنْ مَوَالِيهِمْ‏؟‏ قُلْتُ‏:‏ مِنْ مَوَالِيهِمْ، قَالَ‏:‏ فَهَلاَّ قُلْتَ‏:‏ مِنْ مَوَالِيهِمْ إِذًا‏؟‏‏.‏

'Abdu'r-Rahman ibn Habib said, "'Abdullah ibn 'Umar asked me, 'Which clan are you from?' I replied, 'From Taym of Tamim.' He asked, 'One of themselves or one of their mawlas?' 'One of their mawlas,' I replied. He said, 'So why did you not say, 'One of their mawlas'?"
