أَخْبَرَنَا حَمْزَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْفَضْلِ عَبْدُوسُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَاتِمٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ الرَّازِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ الزِّمِّيُّ الْمُؤَدِّبُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ، عَنِ الْوَازِعِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ؓ
قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " تَفَكَّرُوا فِي آلَاءِ اللهِ - يَعْنِي عَظَمَتَهُ - وَلَا تتَفَكَّرُوا فِي اللهِ " هَذَا إِسْنَادٌ فِيهِ نَظَرٌ
