حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ بِسْطَامٍ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ ثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ الْجَحْدَرِيُّ ثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ أَشْعَثَ بْنِ أَبِي الشَّعْثَاءِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يُحَدِّثُ قَالَ
قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَإِذَا أَبُو أَيُّوبَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَقُلْتُ تُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَنْتَ صَاحِبُ مَنْزِلَةٍ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «لِأَنْ أُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُحَدِّثَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ» قَالَ الْإِمَامُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ «فَمِنْ حِرْصِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَلَى الْعِلْمِ رِوَايَتُهُ عَنْ مَنْ كَانَ أَقَلَّ رِوَايَةً عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ مِنْهُ حِرْصًا عَلَى الْعِلْمِ فَقَدْ رَوَى عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ»

✧ I came to Madinah and found Abu Ayyub narrating from Abu Hurairah. I said, "You narrate from Abu Hurairah while you are a man of high standing with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" He replied, "To narrate from Abu Hurairah is dearer to me than to narrate from the Prophet ﷺ." Imam Abu Bakr said, "Among Abu Hurairah's eagerness for knowledge is his narration from those who narrated less from the Prophet ﷺ than him, out of eagerness for knowledge. He narrated from Sahl b. Sa'd al-Sa'idi."
