حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ أَشْعَثَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ تَزَوَّجَ عَقِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي جُشَمٍ فَقِيلَ لَهُ بِالرِّفَاءِ وَالْبَنِينِ ‏.‏ قَالَ قُولُوا كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏
