حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ أَسْوَدَ الْعِجْلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ ، عَنْ جِبْرِيلَ بْنِ أَحْمَرَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : مَاتَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ فَأُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمِيرَاثِهِ ، فَقَالَ : الْتَمِسُوا لَهُ وَارِثًا ، أَوْ ذَا رَحِمٍ فَلَمْ يَجِدُوا لَهُ وَارِثًا وَلَا ذَا رَحِمٍ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَعْطُوهُ الْكُبْرَ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ " ، وَقَالَ يَحْيَى : قَدْ سَمِعْتُهُ مَرَّةً يَقُولُ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ : انْظُرُوا أَكْبَرَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ خُزَاعَةَ .
Narrated Buraydah ibn al-Hasib: A man of Khuzaah died and his estate was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. He said: Look for his heir or some relative. But they found neither heir nor relative. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Give it to the leading man of Khuzaah. The narrator Yahya said: Sometimes I heard him (al-Husayn ibn Aswad) say in this tradition: Look for the greatest man of Khuzaah.
