البيهقي:٢٢٣٦ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْوَهْبِيُّ ثنا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَبِي حُصَيْنٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ وَثَّابٍ عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَا تُقَلِّدُوا دِينَكُمُ الرِّجَالَ فَإِنْ أَبَيْتُمْ فَبِالْأَمْوَاتِ لَا بِالْأَحْيَاءِ
