أَخْبَرَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي الْهُذَيْلِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو
«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَتَعَوَّذُ مِنْ أَرْبَعٍ مِنْ عِلْمٍ لَا يَنْفَعُ وَمِنْ قَلْبٍ لَا يَخْشَعُ وَدُعَاءٍ لَا يُسْمَعُ وَنَفْسٍ لَا تَشْبَعُ»
