أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السَّلَمِيُّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْحُسَيْنِ الْفَارِسِيَّ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ فَارِسًا، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ يُوسُفَ بْنَ الْحُسَيْنِ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ ذَا النُّونِ،
يَقُولُ: " الْإِخْلَاصُ نَفْيُ الْمُعَارَضَةِ فِي السِّرِّ وَالْعَلَانِيَةِ، حَتَّى لَا يُدَاخِلَهُ فِي الْخَلْقِ رِيَاءٌ، وَلَا يُزَيِّنَ عَمَلَهُ مِنْ أَجْلِهِمْ، وَلَا يُدَاخِلَهُ مِنْ نَفْسٍ عُجْبٌ وَلَا اسْتِكْبَارٌ "
