قَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي سَمِينَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ الْمُحَارِبِيُّ، عَنْ لَيْثٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ؓ قَالَ:
مَثَلُ الْمُؤْمِنِ مَثَلُ النَّخْلَةِ، إِنْ شَاوَرْتَهُ نَفَعَكَ، وَإِنْ مَاشَيْتَهُ نَفَعَكَ، وَإِنْ شَارَكْتَهُ نَفَعَكَ
