وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ، ثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَاثَةَ، ثَنَا خُصَيْفٌ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
مَنْ حَفِظَ عَلَى أُمَّتِي أَرْبَعِينَ حَدِيثًا مِمَّا يَنْفَعُهُمْ مِنْ أَمْرِ دِينِهِمْ بُعِثَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنَ الْعُلَمَاءِ، وَفُضِّلَ الْعَالِمُ عَلَى الْعَابِدِ سَبْعِينَ دَرَجَةً، اللهُ أَعْلَمُ مَا بَيْنَ كُلِّ دَرَجَتَيْنِ
