حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى السِّجِسْتَانِيُّ بِدِمَشْقَ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ الْمَدَنِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مَوْلَى مُزَيْنَةَ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
إِنَّ اللهَ لَا يَقْبِضُ الْعِلْمَ انْتِزَاعًا يَنْتَزِعُهُ مِنَ النَّاسِ، وَلَكِنْ يَقْبِضُ الْعِلْمَ بِقَبْضِ الْعُلَمَاءِ، حَتَّى إِذَا لَمْ يَبْقَ عَالِمًا اتَّخَذَ النَّاسُ جُهَّالًا، فَسُئِلُوا، فَأَفْتَوْا بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ، فَضَلُّوا، وَأَضَلُّوا
