حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ عَنْبَسَةَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: أَتَدْرِي مَا سَعَةُ جَهَنَّمَ ؟ قُلْتُ: لَا، قَالَ: أَجَلْ وَاللَّهِ مَا تَدْرِي، حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ، أَنَّهَا سَأَلَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ قَوْلِهِ: وَالأَرْضُ جَمِيعًا قَبْضَتُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَالسَّمَوَاتُ مَطْوِيَّاتٌ بِيَمِينِهِ سورة الزمر آية 67، قَالَتْ: قُلْتُ: فَأَيْنَ النَّاسُ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ قَالَ: عَلَى جِسْرِ جَهَنَّمَ ، وَفِي الْحَدِيثِ قِصَّةٌ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ.
