حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَاضِرٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ فَذَكَرَهُ بِلَفْظِ:

يُبْعَثُ بَعْثٌ، فَيُقَالُ: هَلْ فِيكُمْ أَحَدٌ صَحِبَ مُحَمَّدًا ﷺ ؟ فَيُقَالُ: نَعَمْ، فَيُلْتَمَسُ فَيُوجَدُ الرَّجُلُ، فَيُسْتَفْتَحُ بِالرَّجُلِ، ثُمَّ يُبْعَثُ بَعْثٌ، فَيُقَالُ: هَلْ فِيكُمْ مَنْ رَأَى أَصْحَابَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ، فَيُلْتَمَسُ فَلَا يُوجَدُ، حَتَّى لَوْ كَانَ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْبَحْرِ لَأَتَيْتُمُوهُ، ثُمَّ يَبْقَى قَوْمٌ يَقْرَؤُونَ الْقُرْآنَ لَا يَدْرُونَ مَا هُوَ

✧ An expedition is sent, and it is said: 'Is there anyone among you who accompanied Muhammad ﷺ?' It is said: 'Yes.' So he is sought and the man is found, and victory is sought through the man. Then an expedition is sent, and it is said: 'Is there anyone among you who saw the Companions of Muhammad ﷺ?' He is sought but not found. Even if he were beyond the sea, you would come to him. Then there remain people who recite the Qur'an but do not know what it is.
