حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ
أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ
جَابِرٍ، قَالَ : " نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يُتَعَاطَى السَّيْفُ مَسْلُولًا " ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ ، وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ ، وَرَوَى ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، عَنْ بَنَّةَ الْجُهَنِيِّ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَحَدِيثُ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ عِنْدِي أَصَحُّ .
