حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مِغْوَلٍ عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ مُصَرِّفٍ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى
هَلْ أَوْصَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، قُلْتُ: فَلِمَ كُتِبَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ الْوَصِيَّةُ ؟ أَوْ لِمَ أُمِرُوا بِالْوَصِيَّةِ ؟ قَالَ: أَوْصَى بِكِتَابِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ
