قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، عَنْ شَرِيكٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، يَرْفَعُهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
مَنْ مَاتَ وَلَا طَاعَةَ عَلَيْهِ مَاتَ مِيتَةً جَاهِلِيَّةً، وَمَنْ خَلَعَهَا بَعْدَ عَقْدِهِ إِيَّاهَا - قَالَ أَسْوَدُ - مِنْ عُنُقِهِ، لَقِيَ اللهَ تَعَالَى وَلَا حُجَّةَ لَهُ، قَالَاهَا جَمِيعًا ".
