البيهقي:٥١٩٢ – أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّيْدَلَانِيُّ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ شَاذَانَ قَالَا ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ثنا أَبُو قَطَنٍ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْهَيْثَمِ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ خِلَاسِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِي رَافِعٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْ يَعْلَمُونَ أَوْ لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ مَا فِي الصَّفِّ الْأَوَّلِ مَا كَانَ إِلَّا قُرْعَةً
