قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ، ثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ خُنَيْسٍ، عَنْ ضِرَارِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنِ الرَّقَاشِيِّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
« عَمَلُ الْبِرِّ كُلُّهِ نِصْفُ الْعِبَادَةِ، وَالدُّعَاءُ نِصْفٌ، فَإِذَا أَرَادَ اللهُ تَعَالَى بِعَبْدٍ خَيْرًا انْتَحَى قَلْبُهُ لِلدُّعَاءِ
