حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ مُصْعَبٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «مَنْ لَزِمَ الاِسْتِغْفَارَ، جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لَهُ مِنْ كُلِّ ضِيقٍ مَخْرَجًا، وَمِنْ كُلِّ هَمٍّ فَرَجًا، وَرَزَقَهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لاَ يَحْتَسِبُ.»
