حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَحَثَّ عَل
َيْهِ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ عِنْدِي كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ فَمَا بَقِيَ فِي الْمَجْلِسِ رَجُلٌ إِلَّا قَدْ تَصَدَّقَ بِمَا قَلَّ أَوْ كَثُرَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ سَنَّ خَيْرًا فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرُهُ كَامِلًا وَمِنْ أُجُورِ مَنْ اسْتَنَّ بِهِ لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا وَمَنْ اسْتَنَّ شَرًّا فَاسْتُنَّ بِهِ فَعَلَيْهِ وِزْرُهُ كَامِلًا وَمِنْ أَوْزَارِ الَّذِي اسْتَنَّ بِهِ لَا يَنْقُصُ مِنْ أَوْزَارِهِمْ شَيْئًا
