أَخْبَرَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْقَطَّانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْأَنْصَارِيُّ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ سُفْيَانَ بْنَ عُيَيْنَةَ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ مُسْتَقْبِلٌ الْحَجَرَ الْأَسْوَدَ فَأَخْبَرَنِي عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ

«يُوشِكُ أَنْ يَضْرِبَ الرَّجُلُ أَكْبَادَ الْإِبِلِ فِي طَلَبِ الْعِلْمِ فَلَا يَجِدُ عَالِمًا أَعْلَمَ مِنْ عَالِمِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ»

Notes

  • قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى بَلَغَنِي عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ انْهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ نَرَى أَنَّهُ مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِسُفْيَانَ بْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا الْعَالِمُ مَنْ يخْشَى اللَّهَ وَلَا نَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا كَانَ أَخْشَى لِلَّهِ مِنَ الْعُمَرِيِّ يُرِيدُ بِهِ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ

    machine translationAbū Mūsā said: It has reached me from Ibn Jurayj that he used to say, "We think that he is Mālik b. Anas." I mentioned that to Sufyān b. ʿUyaynah, and he said: "The scholar is only the one who fears God, and we do not know anyone who feared God more than al-ʿUmarī," by whom he meant ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz.
