وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «فِي ثَقِيفٍ كَذَّابٌ وَمُبِيرٌ» قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عِصْمَةَ يُقَالُ: الْكَذَّابُ هُوَ الْمُخْتَارُ بْنُ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ وَالْمُبِيرُ هُوَ الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ وَقَالَ هِشَامُ بْنُ حَسَّانَ: أَحْصَوْا مَا قَتَلَ الْحَجَّاجُ صَبْرًا فَبَلَغَ مِائَةَ ألفٍ وَعشْرين ألفا. رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ
