- وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ:
إِنَّكُمْ قَدِ ابْتُلِيتُمْ بِذَا السُّلْطَانِ وَابْتُلِيَ بِكُمْ، فَإِنْ عَدَلَ كَانَ لَهُ الْأَجْرُ، وَكَانَ عَلَيْكُمُ الشُّكْرُ، وَإِنْ جَارَ كَانَ عَلَيْهِ الْوِزْرُ، وَعَلَيْكُمُ الصَّبْرُ
