حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ كُلَيْبٍ، قَالَ:، ، قَالَ أَبِي: فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهِ (١) ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: وَمَا أَعْجَبَكَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ؟ كَانَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ إذَا دَعَا الْأَشْيَاخَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَعَانِي مَعَهُمْ، فَقَالَ: لَا تَتَكَلَّمْ حَتَّى يَتَكَلَّمُوا، قَالَ: فَدَعَانَا ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ، أَوْ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فِي لَيْلَةِ الْقَدْرِ مَا قَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ، فَالْتَمِسُوهَا فِي الْعَشْرِ الْأَوَاخِرِ وِتْرًا، فَفِي أَيِّ الْوِتْرِ تَرَوْنَهَا؟ (٢) .،

Asim bin Kulaib said:
My father said: I told Ibn 'Abbas and he said: What is so amazing about that? When ʼUmar called the prominent shaikhs among the Companions of Muhammad ﷺ, he would call me with them and say: Do not speak until they have spoken. He called us one day or one night and said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said about Lailatal-Qadr what you know, so seek it in the odd numbered nights of the last ten nights; on which odd-numbered night do you think it is?
