فَحَدَّثَنَاهُ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْفَقِيهُ أَنْبَأَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زِيَادٍ ثنا ابْنُ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَخِي عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ بِلَالٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
«مَنِ ابْتَغَى الْعِلْمَ لِيُبَاهِيَ بِهِ الْعُلَمَاءَ أَوْ يُمَارِيَ بِهِ السُّفَهَاءَ أَوْ يَقْبَلَ إِفَادَةَ النَّاسِ إِلَيْهِ فَإِلَى النَّارِ»

Notes
«لَمْ يُخَرِّجِ الشَّيْخَانِ لِإِسْحَاقَ بْنِ يَحْيَى شَيْئًا وَإِنَّمَا جَعَلْتَهُ شَاهِدًا لِمَا قَدَّمْتُ مِنْ شَرْطِهِمَا وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يَحْيَى مِنْ أَشْرَافِ قُرَيْشٍ» لم يخرجا لإسحاق وإنما خرجته شاهدا
