حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ هَاشِمٍ، أَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ عَمْرُو بْنُ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ، عَنْ آبَائِهِ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:

« أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَكْيَسُ ؟ » قُلْتُ: اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ. قَالَ ﷺ: « إِنَّ أَكْيَسَ النَّاسِ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لِلْمَوْتِ ذِكْرًا، وَأَحْسَنُهُمْ لِلهِ اسْتِعْدَادًا
