أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْمُؤَدِّبُ، حدثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْمُحَمَّدَآبَاذيُّ، حدثنا أَبُو حَاتِمٍ الرَّازِيُّ،
قَالَ: ذَكَرَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ: " إِذَا كَانَ الْمُحَدِّثُ لَا يَعْرِفُ النَّحْوَ فَهُوَ كَالْحِمَارِ يَكُونُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ مِخْلَاةٌ لَيْسَ فِيهَا شَعِيرٌ "
