حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ عَنْ مُرَّةَ بْنِ شَرَاحِيلَ قَالَ قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ
ثَلاَثٌ لأَنْ يَكُونَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَيَّنَهُنَّ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا الْكَلاَلَةُ وَالرِّبَا وَالْخِلاَفَةُ
