الدارمي:١٢٦١أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ عَيْزَارٍ أَخْبَرَنِي قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَمْرٍو الشَّيْبَانِيَّ يَقُولُ

حَدَّثَنِي صَاحِبُ هَذِهِ الدَّارِ وَأَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى دَارِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَيُّ الْأَعَمَالِ أَفْضَلُ أَوْ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ قَالَ «الصَّلَاةُ عَلَى مِيقَاتِهَا»
