حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ، عَنْ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ غَالِبٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ حُنَيْنٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ رَفَعَهُ:
لِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ آلَةٌ وَعُدَّةٌ، وَآلَةُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَعُدَّتُهُ الْعَقْلُ، وَدِعَامَةُ الْمُؤْمِنِ الْعَقْلُ، وَلِكُلِّ شَيْءٍ غَايَةٌ، وَغَايَةُ الْعِبَادَةِ الْعَقْلُ، وَلِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ رَاعٍ، وَرَاعِي الْعَابِدِينَ الْعَقْلُ، وَلِكُلِّ تَاجِرٍ بِضَاعَةٌ، وَبِضَاعَةُ الْمُجْتَهِدِينَ الْعَقْلُ، وَلِكُلِّ أَهْلِ بَيْتٍ قَيِّمٌ، وَقَيِّمُ بُيُوتِ الصِّدِّيقِينَ الْعَقْلُ، وَلِكُلِّ خَرَابٍ عِمَارَةٌ، وَعِمَارَةُ الْآخِرَةِ الْعَقْلُ، وَلِكُلِّ أَمْرٍ عَقِبٌ يُنْسَبُ إِلَيْهِ وَيُذْكَرُ بِهِ، وَعَقِبُ الصِّدِّيقِينَ الَّذِي يُنْسَبُ إِلَيْهِمْ، وَيُذْكَرُونَ بِهِ الْعَقْلُ، وَلِكُلِّ شَعْبٍ فُسْطَاطٌ يَلْجَؤُونَ إِلَيْهِ، وَفُسْطَاطُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ الْعَقْلُ.
