حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ، ثَنَا عَبَّادٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ؓ
قَدِمَ رَجُلٌ نَصْرَانِيٌّ مِنْ أَهْلِ جُرَشَ تَاجِرٌ فَكَانَ لَهُ بَيَانٌ وَوَقَارٌ فَقِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا أَعْقَلَ هَذَا النَّصْرَانِيَّ فَزَجَرَ الْقَائِلَ وَقَالَ: « مَهْ إِنَّ الْعَاقِلَ مَنْ عَمِلَ بِطَاعَةِ اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى
