حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيٌّ ، حَدَّثَنَا غَيْلَانُ ،عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَعْبَدٍ الزِّمَّانِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ ، بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ ، زَادَ قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، " أَرَأَيْتَ صَوْمَ يَوْمِ الِاثْنَيْنِ وَيَوْمِ الْخَمِيسِ ؟ قَالَ : فِيهِ وُلِدْتُ وَفِيهِ أُنْزِلَ عَلَيَّ الْقُرْآنُ " .
