حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ رِشْدِينَ قَالَ: نَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ: نَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ بْنِ قُنْفُذٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ. عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ:
أَفْضَلُ عِبَادِ اللهِ مَنْزِلَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ: إِمَامٌ عَدْلٌ رَقِيقٌ، وَشَرُّ عِبَادِ اللهِ عِنْدَ اللهِ مَنْزِلَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ: إِمَامٌ جَائِرٌ، خَرِقٌ
