حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزُّهْرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا
سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ
يَزِيدَ ، نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ شَرِيكٍ ، لَمْ يَقُلْ : ثُمَّ لَا يَعُودُ ، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ ، قَالَ لَنَا بِالْكُوفَةِ بَعْدُ : ثُمَّ لَا يَعُودُ ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد ، وَرَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ هُشَيْمٌ ، وَخَالِدٌ ، وَابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ لَمْ يَذْكُرُوا : ثُمَّ لَا يَعُودُ .
