حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ السَّمَّاكِ ثنا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي دَاوُدَ الْمُنَادِي ثنا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ ثنا كَهْمَسُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شَقِيقٍ قَالَ
جَاءَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ إِلَى كَعْبٍ يَسْأَلُ عَنْهُ وَكَعْبٌ فِي الْقَوْمِ فَقَالَ كَعْبٌ «مَا تُرِيدُ مِنْهُ؟» فَقَالَ أَمَا إِنِّي لَا أَعْرِفُ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَكُونُ أَحْفَظَ لِحَدِيثِهِ مِنِّي فَقَالَ كَعْبٌ «أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَمْ تَجِدْ أَحَدًا يَطْلُبُ شَيْئًا إِلَّا يَشْبَعُ مِنْهُ يَوْمًا مِنَ الدَّهْرِ إِلَّا طَالِبَ عِلْمٍ وَطَالِبَ دُنْيَا» فَقَالَ أَنْتَ كَعْبٌ فَإِنِّي لِمِثْلِ هَذَا جِئْتُ

✧ Abu Huraira came to Ka'b to ask about someone, and Ka'b was among the people. Ka'b asked, "What do you want from him?" Abu Huraira replied, "I do not know anyone from the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who preserves his hadiths better than me." Ka'b responded, "Indeed, you have not found anyone who seeks something without being satisfied with it for a day in his entire life, except for a seeker of knowledge and a seeker of worldly gains." Then he said to Abu Huraira, "You are Ka'b, so I have come for something like this."
