أخبرناه : أبو الحسين علي بن عبد الرحمن الشيباني بالكوفة ، ثنا : أحمد بن حازم الغفاري ، ثنا : خالد بن مخلد القطواني ، قال : حدثني : موسى بن يعقوب الزمعي ، أخبرني : هاشم بن هاشم بن عتبة بن أبي وقاص ، عن عبد الله ابن وهب بن زمعة ، قال : أخبرتني : أم سلمة (ر) أن رسول الله (ص) اضطجع ذات ليلة للنوم فاستيقظ وهو حائر ، ثم اضطجع فرقد ، ثم استيقظ وهو حائر دون ما رأيت به المرة الأولى ، ثم اضطجع فاستيقظ وفي يده تربة حمراء يقبلها ، فقلت : ما هذه التربة يا رسول الله ، قال : أخبرني جبريل عليه الصلاة السلام أن هذا يقتل بأرض العراق للحسين ، فقلت لجبريل : أرني تربة الأرض التي يقتل بها فهذه تربتها.
