Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَتَّابٌ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يَزِيدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي جَرِيرُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا زُرْعَةَ بْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَرِيرٍ يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَدٌّ يُعْمَلُ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَيْرٌ لِأَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ مِنْ أَنْ يُمْطَرُوا ثَلَاثِينَ صَبَاحًا.
