حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثنا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ثنا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي حُصَيْنٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بَابَاهِ قَالَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللهِ
«لَأَنْ يَعَضَّ أَحَدُكُمْ عَلَى جَمْرَةٍ حَتَّى تَبْرُدَ أَوْ يُمْسِكَ عَلَيْهَا حَتَّى تَبْرُدَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ يَقُولَ لِأَمْرٍ قَضَاهُ اللهُ لَيْتَهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ»
