الزهد لأحمد:٧٣٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي وَحَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ حَدَّثَنَا شُجَاعٌ يَعْنِي صَاحِبَ السَّابِرِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنَ قُرَّةَ يَقُولُ قَالَ

أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ اطْلُبُوا الْعِلْمَ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَطْلُبُوهُ فَأَحِبُّوا أَهْلَهُ فَإِنْ لَمْ تُحِبُّوهُمْ فَلَا تُبْغِضُوهُمْ
