إِسْحَاقُ: حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ، أَنْبَأَنَا أَبُو قُرَّةَ هُوَ الْأَسَدِيُّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ قَالَ:
ذُكِرَ لِي أَنَّ الْأَعْمَالَ تَتَبَاهَى، فَتَقُولُ الصَّدَقَةُ: أَنَا أَفْضَلُكُمْ. قَالَ: وَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ: مَا مِنِ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ يَتَصَدَّقُ بِزَوْجَيْنِ مِنْ مَالِهِ إِلَّا ابْتَدَرَتْهُ حَجَبَةُ الْجَنَّةِ
