حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ الْغَازِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِيَأَبُو النَّضْرِ قَالَ
دَعَانِي وَاثِلَةُ بْنُ الْأَسْقَعِ وَقَدْ ذَهَبَ بَصَرُهُ، فَقَالَ: يَا حَيَّانُ قُدْنِي إِلَى يَزِيدَ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ الْجُرَشِيِّ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ، فَقَالَ: أَبْشِرْ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ عَنِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ: أَنَا عِنْدَ ظَنِّ عَبْدِي بِي، فَلْيَظُنَّ بِي مَا شَاءَ
