حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي خَيْثَمَةَ قَالَ: ثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ قَالَ: ثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْأُبُلِّيُّ قَالَ: ثَنَا مِسْعَرٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ رِبْعِيِّ بْنِ حِرَاشٍ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ بْنِ الْيَمَانِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ أَبْعَثَ فِي النَّاسِ مُعَلِّمِينَ، كَمَا بَعَثَ عِيسَى ابْنُ مَرْيَمَ الْحَوَارِيِّينَ إِلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ "، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: أَيْنَ أَنْتَ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ، أَلَا تَبْعَثُ بِهِمَا ؟ فَقَالَ: " إِنَّهُمَا لَا غِنَى لِي عَنْهُمَا، إِنَّهُمَا مِنَ الدِّينِ كَالرَّأْسِ مِنَ الْجَسَدِ
