حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ: قَالَ عُبَادَةُ بْنُ الصَّامِتِ:
لَأَنْ أَكُونَ فِي قَوْمٍ يَذْكُرُونَ اللهَ مِنْ حِينِ يُصَلُّونَ الْغَدَاةَ إِلَى أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ، أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَكُونَ عَلَى مُتُونِ الْخَيْلِ أُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ إِلَى أَنْ تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ، وَلَأَنْ أَكُونَ فِي قَوْمٍ يَذْكُرُونَ اللهَ مِنْ حِينِ يُصَلُّونَ الْعَصْرَ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ، أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَكُونَ عَلَى مُتُونِ الْخَيْلِ أُجَاهِدُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ
