حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَبِي الأَسْوَدِ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ الأَسْوَدِ، عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ الصَّوَّافِ قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا جَابِرٌ قَالَ‏:‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏:‏ مَنْ سَيِّدُكُمْ يَا بَنِي سَلِمَةَ‏؟‏ قُلْنَا‏:‏ جُدُّ بْنُ قَيْسٍ، عَلَى أَنَّا نُبَخِّلُهُ، قَالَ‏:‏ وَأَيُّ دَاءٍ أَدْوَى مِنَ الْبُخْلِ‏؟‏ بَلْ سَيِّدُكُمْ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْجَمُوحِ، وَكَانَ عَمْرٌو عَلَى أَصْنَامِهِمْ فِي الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ، وَكَانَ يُولِمُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا تَزَوَّجَ‏.‏

that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Who is your chief, O Banu Salama?" We replied, "Judd ibn Qays, although we think that he is a miser." He said, "What illness is worse than miserliness? Rather, your chief is 'Amr ibn al-Jamuh." And 'Amr was (serving) upon their idols during Jahilyyah and he used to arrange the marriage banquet of the Messenger of Allah if he married.
