Chapter 37 · The Book of Governmentوَحَدَّثَنَاهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، قَالَ: دَخَلَ ابْنُ زِيَادٍ عَلَى مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ وَهُوَ وَجِعٌ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ أَبِي الْأَشْهَبِ، وَزَادَ قَالَ: أَلَّا كُنْتَ حَدَّثْتَنِي هَذَا قَبْلَ الْيَوْمِ؟ قَالَ: مَا حَدَّثْتُكَ، أَوْ لَمْ أَكُنْ لِأُحَدِّثَكَ.

Ibn Ziyad paid a visit to Ma'qil bin Yasir رضی اللہ عنہ who was seriously ill. Here follows the same tradition as has gone before with the addition that Ibn Ziyad asked: Why didn't you narrate this tradition to me before this day? Ma'qil رضی اللہ عنہ reprimanded him and said: I did not narrate it to you or I was not going to narrate it to you.
