أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ الْحَافِظُ، بِهَمْدَانَ، نا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ، نا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي دَرَّاجٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ حُجَيْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ،
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: " إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ الْعَبْدَ يُعْطَى زُهْدًا فِي الدُّنْيَا وَقِلَّةَ مَنْطِقٍ، فَاقْتَرِبُوا مِنْهُ، فَإِنَّهُ يُلْقِي الْحِكْمَةَ "
