حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ مَوْلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُمَيْرٍ ، عَن أَبِي بُرْدَةَ بْنِ أَبِي مُوسَى ، عَن أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : مَرِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : " مُرُوا أَبَا بَكْرٍ ، فَلْيُصَلِّ بِالنَّاسِ " ، فَذَكَرَهُ.

And he mentioned it.
