حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الشَّرِيدِ، عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ، أَنَّ سَعْدًا، سَاوَمَهُ بَيْتًا بِأَرْبَعِمِائَةِ مِثْقَالٍ فَقَالَ لَوْلاَ أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ الْجَارُ أَحَقُّ بِصَقَبِهِ ‏"‏‏.‏ لَمَا أَعْطَيْتُكَ‏.‏ وَقَالَ بَعْضُ النَّاسِ إِنِ اشْتَرَى نَصِيبَ دَارٍ، فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُبْطِلَ الشُّفْعَةَ، وَهَبَ لاِبْنِهِ الصَّغِيرِ وَلاَ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ يَمِينٌ‏.‏
