وَقَالَ الْحُمَيْدِيُّ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، حَدَّثَنِي صَفْوَانُ بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ، عَنِ امْرَأَةٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا أُنَيْسَةُ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَعِيدٍ بِنْتِ مُرَّةَ الْفِهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهَا ؓ قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: «
أَنَا وَكَافِلُ الْيَتِيمِ لَهُ أَوْ لِغَيْرِهِ فِي الْجَنَّةِ كَهَاتَيْنِ »، وَأَشَارَ سُفْيَانُ بِإِصْبَعَيْهِ
