أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حَمْشَاذٍ أَخْبَرَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ الْهَيْثَمِ أَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنَ أبي اللَّيْثِ حَدَّثَهُمْ ثنا الْأَشْجَعِيُّ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ ؓ قَالَ الثَّنِيُّ أَحَبُّ إِلِيَّ مِنَ الْهَرِمِ اللهُ أَحَقُّ بِالْفَتَاءِ وَالْكَرَمِ أَحَبُّهُ إِلِيَّ مِنَ الثَّنِيِّ أَحَبُّهُ إِلَى أَنْ أُضَحِّيَ بِهِ هَذَا مَوْقُوفٌ

Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz informed us, Ali ibn Hamshad informed us, Yazid ibn al-Haytham informed me that Ibrahim ibn Abi al-Layth narrated to them, al-Ashja'i narrated to us from Sufyan from Asim ibn Sulayman from Muhammad ibn Sirin from Imran ibn Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) who said: "A two-year-old is more beloved to me than an old one. Allah has more right to youth and generosity. The most beloved to me is more beloved than a two-year-old to sacrifice." This is a mawquf report (stopped at the companion).
