حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ الْمَعْنِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْجُمَحِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: أَفْشُوا السَّلَامَ وَأَطْعِمُوا الطَّعَامَ وَاضْرِبُوا الْهَامَ تُورَثُوا الْجِنَانَ ، قَالَ: وَفِي الْبَاب عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، وَابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَأَنَسٍ، وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَلَامٍ، وَعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَائِشَ، وَشُرَيْحِ بْنِ هَانِئٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ.
