١٩١٨ - وَأنا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ حَيْدَرَهْ، قَالَ: نا يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، قَالَ: نا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: نا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْعَدَنِيُّ، قَالَ: نا الْحَكَمُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عِكْرِمَةُ، قَالَ: سُئِلَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ عَنِ الْكَبَائِرِ، أَسَبْعَةٌ هِيَ؟ قَالَ: «هِيَ إِلَى سَبْعِينَ أَقْرَبُ مِنْهَا إِلَى سَبْعَةٍ»
