حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ بَالَوَيْهِ ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ النَّضْرِ ثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ثَنَا زَائِدَةُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ خُثَيْمٍ عَنْ نَافِعِ بْنِ سَرْجِسَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ

«غَشِيَتْكُمُ الْفِتَنُ كَقِطَعِ اللَّيْلِ الْمُظْلِمِ أَنْجَى النَّاسِ فِيهِ رَجُلٌ صَاحِبُ شَاهِقَةٍ يَأْكُلُ مِنْ رَسَلِ غَنَمِهِ أَوْ رَجُلٌ آخِذٌ بِعِنَانِ فَرَسِهِ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الدَّرْبِ يَأْكُلُ مِنْ سَيْفِهِ»
