حَدَّثَنَا بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ يَحْيَى، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ ؓ قَالَ:
سَمِعْتُهُ يَحْلِفُ بِاللهِ وَمَا سَمِعْتُهُ يَحْلِفُ عَلَى شَيْءٍ قَطُّ قَبْلَهَا، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ اللهَ اخْتَارَ لَكُمْ أَفْضَلَ الْكَلَامِ أَرْبَعًا: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلهِ، وَلَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَاللهُ أَكْبَرُ.
