حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، وَهَدِيَّةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قَالَتْ لِي عَائِشَةُ يَا عُرْوَةُ كَانَ أَبَوَاكَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ اسْتَجَابُوا لِلَّهِ وَالرَّسُولِ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا أَصَابَهُمُ الْقَرْحُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَالزُّبَيْرُ ‏.‏
