حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِي مَعْمَرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي هَذِهِ الْآيَةِ { اقْتَرَبَتْ السَّاعَةُ وَانْشَقَّ الْقَمَرُ } قَالَ قَدْ انْشَقَّ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَ
سُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِرْقَتَيْنِ أَوْ فِلْقَتَيْنِ شُعْبَةُ الَّذِي يَشُكُّ فَكَانَ فِلْقَةٌ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْجَبَلِ وَفِلْقَةٌ عَلَى الْجَبَلِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اللَّهُمَّ اشْهَدْ
