أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، نا وَالِدِي، نا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ السَّرَّاجُ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُكْرَمٍ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَفَّانَ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ فُضَيْلَ بْنَ عِيَاضٍ،
يَقُولُ: " إِذَا أَرَادَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يُحِبَّ الْعَبْدَ سَلَّطَ عَلَيْهِ مَنْ يَظْلِمُهُ "
