حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ زَائِدَةَ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
خَيْرُ النَّاسِ قَرْنِي الَّذِي أَنَا فِيهِ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ، ثُمَّ يَأْتِي قَوْمٌ تَسْبِقُ شَهَادَتُهُمْ أَيْمَانَهُمْ، وَأَيْمَانُهُمْ شَهَادَتَهُمْ
