أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا، قَالَ :" مَا رَأَيْتُ قَوْمًا كَانُوا خَيْرًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَا سَأَلُوهُ إِلَّا عَنْ ثَلَاثَ عَشْرَةَ مَسْأَلَةً حَتَّى قُبِضَ، كُلُّهُنَّ، فِي الْقُرْآنِ مِنْهُنَّ، # يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الشَّهْرِ الْحَرَامِ سورة البقرة آية 217 #، وَ # وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْمَحِيضِ سورة البقرة آية 222 #، قَالَ : مَا كَانُوا يَسْأَلُونَ إِلَّا عَمَّا يَنْفَعُهُمْ "
