أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُوسَى، وَأَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ : نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يُبْنَى عَلَى الْقَبْرِ، أَوْ يُزَادَ عَلَيْهِ، أَوْ يُجَصَّصَ . زَادَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى : أَوْ يُكْتَبَ عَلَيْهِ .
