أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، نا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ هُوَ الْأَصَمُّ، نا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، نا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، نا الْيَمَانُ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ
قَالَ: كَانَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَبِي زَكَرِيَّا عَابِدَ الشَّامِ فَكَانَ يَقُولُ: " مَا عَالَجْتُ مِنَ الْعِبَادَةِ شَيْئًا أَشَدَّ مِنَ السُّكُوتِ "
