وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ دَاوُدَ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ كَرِيزٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ:
إِنَّ أَخْوَفَ مَا أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ إِعْجَابُ الْمَرْءِ بِرَأْيِهِ، وَمَنْ قَالَ: أَنَا عَالِمٌ، فَهُوَ جَاهِلٌ، وَمَنْ قَالَ: إِنِّي فِي الْجَنَّةِ، فَهُوَ فِي النَّارِ
