وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ هُوَ ابْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ؓ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
« إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيُدْرِكُ دَرَجَةَ الصَّائِمِ الْقَائِمِ بِالْخُلُقِ الْحَسَنِ، وَإِنَّهُ لَيُكْتَبُ جَبَّارًا وَمَا يَمْلِكُ إِلَّا أَهْلَ بَيْتِهِ
