أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ عِيَاضٍ عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
«أُنْزِلَ الْقُرْآنُ عَلَى سَبْعَةِ أَحْرُفٍ وَالْمِرَاءُ فِي الْقُرْآنِ كُفْرٌ ثَلَاثًا مَا عَرَفْتُمْ مِنْهُ فَاعْمَلُوا بِهِ وَمَا جَهِلْتُمْ مِنْهُ فَرُدُّوهُ إِلَى عَالِمِهِ»
