وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ: حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، ثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
اطْلُبُوا الْقُوَّةَ وَالْأَمَانَةَ فِي الْأَئِمَّةِ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، فَإِنَّ قَوِيَّ قُرَيْشٍ لَهُ فَضْلَانِ عَلَى أَقَوَى مَنْ سِوَاهُمْ، وَإِنَّ أَمِينَ قُرَيْشٍ لَهُ فَضْلَانِ عَلَى أَمِينِ مَنْ سِوَاهُمْ
