وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَابْنُ، نُمَيْرٍ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا رِفَاعَةُ بْنُ الْهَيْثَمِ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، - يَعْنِي الطَّحَّانَ - كِلاَهُمَا يَقُولُ عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ لَوْ كُنَّا مِائَةَ أَلْفٍ لَكَفَانَا كُنَّا خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ مِائَةً .
Translation
Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah and Ibn Numayr said: Abdullah ibn Idris narrated to us. (Another chain:) Rifaa ibn al-Haytham narrated to us; Khalid, meaning al-Tahhan, narrated to us. Both related it from Husayn, from Salim ibn Abi al-Jad, from Jabir, who said: If we had been one hundred thousand, it would have sufficed us; we were fifteen hundred.
