حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ نَجِيحٍ، - وَلَيْسَ بِالْمَلْطِيِّ - عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ أَبِي أُسَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ
إِذَا أَكْثَبُوكُمْ فَارْمُوهُمْ بِالنَّبْلِ وَلاَ تَسُلُّوا السُّيُوفَ حَتَّى يَغْشَوْكُمْ
