حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ وَحُمَيْدٌ وَيُونُسُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكَرَةَ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيُّ النَّاسِ خَيْرٌ ؟ قَالَ: مَنْ طَالَ عُمُرُهُ وَحَسُنَ عَمَلُهُ قَالَ: فَأَيُّ النَّاسِ شَرٌّ ؟ قَالَ: مَنْ طَالَ عُمُرُهُ وَسَاءَ عَمَلُهُ
