abudawud:4617Hilāl b. Bishr > Ḥammād > Ḥumayd

Al-Hasan used to say that his fall from the heaven on the earth is dearer to him than uttering: The matter is in my hand.  

أبو داود:٤٦١٧حَدَّثَنَا هِلاَلُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حُمَيْدٌ قَالَ كَانَ الْحَسَنُ يَقُولُ

لأَنْ يُسْقَطَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَنْ يَقُولَ الأَمْرُ بِيَدِي
