حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ غَنَّامٍ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ عِيسَى عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ ثَابِتِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّهُ يَأْتِينِي كُتُبٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ وَلَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ يَقْرَأَهَا كُلُّ أَحَدٍ فَهَلْ تَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ تَتَعَلَّمَ كِتَابَ السُّرْيَانِيَّةِ؟» قُلْتُ نَعَمْ «فَتَعَلَّمْتُهَا فِي سَبْعَ عَشْرَةَ»
