حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَرِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ
مَا مِنْ قَوْمٍ يُعْمَلُ فِيهِمْ بِالْمَعَاصِي هُمْ أَعَزُّ مِنْهُمْ وَأَمْنَعُ لاَ يُغَيِّرُونَ إِلاَّ عَمَّهُمُ اللَّهُ بِعِقَابٍ

machine translationAbū al-Aḥwaṣ and Salamah b. Ṣāliḥ narrated it from Abū Isḥāq, from ʿAbdullāh b. Jarīr, from his father. It was likewise narrated from al-Aʿmash, from Abū Isḥāq, from ʿAbdullāh b.

Abū Sinān said: from Abū Isḥāq, from Ibn Jarīr, from his father, and he did not name him. ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd b. Abī Jaʿfar said: from Abū Isḥāq, from ʿUbaydullāh or ʿUbaydullāh b. Jarīr, from his father. Sharīk differed from them: he narrated it from Abū Isḥāq, from al-Mundhir b. Jarīr, from his father, and he was not corroborated in that.
