أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ مِسْعَرِ بْنِ كِدَامٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ بَعْدَ هَذَا الْخَيْرِ الَّذِي نَحْنُ فِيهِ مِنْ شَرٍّ نَحْذَرُهُ؟ قَالَ «يَا حُذَيْفَةُ عَلَيْكَ بِكِتَابِ اللَّهِ فَتَعَلَّمْهُ وَاتَّبِعْ مَا فِيهِ خَيْرًا لَكَ»
