حَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْكَاتِبُ أَنْبَأَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثنا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ وَيُونُسٍ وَثَابِتٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيُّ النَّاسِ خَيْرٌ؟ قَالَ «مَنْ طَالَ عُمْرُهُ وَحَسُنَ عَمَلُهُ» قَالَ فَأَيُّ النَّاسِ شَرٌّ؟ قَالَ «مَنْ طَالَ عُمْرُهُ وَسَاءَ عَمَلُهُ»
