Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْجَوَّابِ الضَّبِّيُّ الْأَحْوَصُ بْنُ جَوَّابٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ زُرَيْقٍ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُحَدِّثُ نَفْسِي بِالْحَدِيثِ لَأَنْ أَخِرَّ مِنْ السَّمَاءِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَتَكَلَّمَ بِهِ قَالَ ذَلِكَ صَرِيحُ الْإِيمَانِ.
