وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ: أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ، عَنْ رَجُلَيْنِ: كِلَاهُمَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ:
إِنَّ أَحَدَهُمَا سَجَدَ فِي إِذَا السَّمَاءُ انْشَقَّتْ، أَوْ فِي اقْرَأْ بِاسْمِ رَبِّكَ، وَلَمْ يَسْجُدِ الْآخَرُ، فَكَانَ الَّذِي سَجَدَ أَفْضَلَ مِنَ الَّذِي لَمْ يَسْجُدْ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ عُمَرُ ؓ فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عُمَرَ ؓ
