أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ إِسْمَاعِيل بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، قَالَ: "لَوْ رَفَقْتُ بِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ لَأَصَبْتُ مِنْهُ عِلْمًا كَثِيرًا".
Abu Salamah said: I wish I had kept the company of Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), so I would have acquired a large portion of his knowledge.
