الزهد لأحمد:١٠٧٩ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنِي هَاشِمٌ حَدَّثَنَا عِصَامٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ أَعْطَى ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ بِنَافِعٍ عَشْرَةَ آلَافٍ أَوْ أَلْفَ دِينَارٍ فَدَخَلَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ عَلَى صَفِيَّةَ امْرَأَتِهِ فَقَالَ لَهَا إِنَّهُ أَعْطَانِي ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ بِنَافِعٍ عَشْرَةَ آلَافٍ أَوْ أَلْفَ دِينَارٍ فَقَالَتْ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ فَمَا تَنْتَظِرُ أَنْ تَبِيعَ؟ قَالَ

فَهَلَّا مَا هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ ذَلِكَ هُوَ لِوَجْهِ اللَّهِ ﷻ
