وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ: حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنٌ الْجُعْفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي عِيَاضٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ - وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ عِنْدَهُ جَالِسٌ:
مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٌ يُنْفِقُ نَفَقَةً فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ تَعَالَى، إِلَّا جَاءَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَعَهُمُ الرَّيْحَانُ عَلَى أَبْوَابِ الْجَنَّةِ: يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ، يَا مُسْلِمُ، هَلُمَّ. فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ هَذَا الرَّجُلَ مَا عَلَى مَالِهِ مِنْ تَوًى ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: إِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنْهُمْ
