أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُّ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، وَأَبُو صَادِقٍ الْعَطَّارُ، ثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثَنَا أَبُو يَعْقُوبَ يُوسُفُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْخُوَارِزْمِيُّ بِبَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ، ثَنَا ابْنُ مِقْلَاصٍ، ثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ
قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " لِلْقَلْبِ فَرْحَةٌ عِنْدَ أَكْلِ اللَّحْمِ، وَمَا دَامَ الْفَرَحُ بِأَمْرٍ إِلَّا أَشَرَّ وَبَطَرٍ، فَمَرَّةً وَمَرَّةً "
