وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَيَّانَ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ الرُّومِيُّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْخَلِيلَ بْنَ مُرَّةَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ مُبَشِّرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ؓ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ، ﷺ قَالَ:

فُضِّلَ الْعَالِمُ عَلَى الْعَابِدِ سَبْعِينَ دَرَجَةً، مَا بَيْنَ كُلِّ دَرَجَتَيْنِ كَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ
