( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ، ثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ قَالَ:
قَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ - ؓ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَمِّرْنِي عَلَى بَعْضِ مَا وَلَّاكَ اللهُ. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - ﷺ: يَا عَبَّاسُ، يَا عَمَّ رَسُولِ اللهِ، نَفْسٌ تُنْجِيهَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ إِمَارَةٍ لَا تُحْصِيهَا
