حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ: نَا جَرِيرٌ قَالَ: نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَبَّانَ عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ مَثَلُ الْخَامَةِ مِنَ الزَّرْعِ تُفَيِّئُهَا الْأَرْوَاحُ، وَمَثَلُ الْكَافِرِ مَثَلُ الْأَرْزَةِ قَائِمَةً عَلَى أَصْلِهَا لَا يُحَرِّكُهَا شَيْءٌ حَتَّى تَهُبَّ رِيحٌ فَتَقْصِفُهَا
