حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ، - رضى الله عنها - قَالَتْ نَزَلَ الْوَحْىُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَرَأَ عَلَيْنَا { سُورَةٌ أَنْزَلْنَاهَا وَفَرَضْنَاهَا } . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ يَعْنِي مُخَفَّفَةً حَتَّى أَتَى عَلَى هَذِهِ الآيَاتِ .
