[Machine] "Do they [not] say, 'I think these are nothing but a night of evil'?"  

الزهد لأحمد:١٥٣٥حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَيَّارٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ سَكَنٌ صَاحِبُ الشَّاءِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ وَهُوَ فِي السُّوقِ فَرَأَى لَغَطَ أَهْلِ الْأَسْوَاقِ فَقَالَ

«أَمَا يَقِيلُ هَؤُلَاءِ مَا أَظُنُّ لَيْلَ هَؤُلَاءِ إِلَّا لَيْلَ سُوءٍ»
