وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ زَنْجُوَيْهِ، ثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ، ثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ غَزِيَّةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:

« مَا ذِئْبَانِ ضَارِيَانِ جَائِعَانِ فِي غَنَمٍ، افْتَرَقَتْ أَحَدُهُمَا فِي أَوَّلِهَا، وَالْآخَرُ فِي آخِرِهَا، بِأَسْرَعَ فَسَادًا مِنِ امْرِئٍ يُحِبُّ شَرَفَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَالَهَا فِي دِينِهِ
