حَدَّثَنَا ) أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ فُورَكَ، أَنْبَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ، ثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، ثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ الْأَحْمَسِيُّ، أَخْبَرَتْنِي جَدَّتِي وَاسْمُهَا أُمُّ حُصَيْنٍ الْأَحْمَسِيَّةُ قَالَتْ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ:
" إِنِ اسْتُعْمِلَ عَلَيْكُمْ عَبْدٌ حَبَشِيٌّ، مَا قَادَكُمْ بِكِتَابِ اللهِ، فَاسْمَعُوا لَهُ وَأَطِيعُوا
