أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ بْنُ أَبِي عَلِيٍّ السَّقَّاء، أخبرنا أَبُو سَهْلِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ الْقَطَّانُ، حدثنا أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى الْحُلْوَانِيِّ، حدثنا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ جُنَادٍ، حدثنا عَطَاءُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ الْخَفَّافُ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ،
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ: " اغْدُ عَالِمًا أَوْ مُتَعَلِّمًا أَوْ مُسْتَمِعًا أَوْ مُحِبًّا، وَلَا تَكُنِ الْخَامِسَةَ فَتَهْلِكَ " قَالَ عُبَيْدُ بْنُ جُنَادٍ: قَالَ عَطَاءٌ: قَالَ مِسْعَرُ بْنُ كِدَامٍ: " يَا عَطَاءُ هَذِهِ خَامِسَةٌ زَادَنَا اللهُ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي أَيْدِينَا إِنَّمَا كَانَ فِي أَيْدِينَا، اغْدُ عَالِمًا أَوْ مُتَعَلِّمًا أَوْ مُسْتَمِعًا، وَلَا تَكُنِ الرَّابِعَةَ فَتَهْلِكَ يَا عَطَاءُ، وَيْلٌ لِمَنْ لَيْسَ فِيهِ وَاحِدَةٌ مِنْ هَذِهِ "

From the Prophet ﷺ, who said: "Begin your morning as a scholar, or a learner, or a listener, or a lover [of knowledge], and do not be the fifth, lest you perish." ʿUbayd b. Junād said: ʿAṭāʾ said: Misʿar b. Kidām said: "O ʿAṭāʾ, this fifth is something God has added for us in this hadith; it was not in our hands. What was in our hands was: Begin your morning as a scholar, or a learner, or a listener, and do not be the fourth, lest you perish. O ʿAṭāʾ, woe to the one in whom there is not one of these."
