حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ شُعْبَةَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ أُمَّهُ مَاتَتْ فَقَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِنَّ أُمِّي مَاتَتْ أَفَأَتَصَدَّقُ عَنْهَا؟ قَالَ: ((نَعَمْ))، قَالَ: فَأَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: ((سَقْيُ الْمَاءِ))، قَالَ: فَتِلْكَ سِقَايَةُ آلِ سَعْدٍ بِالْمَدِينَةِ، قَالَ شُعْبَةُ: فَقُلْتُ لِقَتَادَةَ: مَنْ يَقُولُ ’’تِلْكَ سِقَايَةُ آلِ سَعْدٍ‘‘؟ قَالَ: الْحَسَنُ
