٥٧٧ - وَأَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ، قَالَ: ثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، قَالَ: ثَنَا حُجَيْنُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، قَالَ: ثَنَا الْمَاجِشُونُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، كُنَّا نَقُولُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَعُثْمَانُ، وَيَبْلُغُ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَلَا يُنْكِرْهُ عَلَيْنَا "
