الدارمي:٢٢٠ – أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ أَنبَأَنَا عَلِيٌّ هُوَ ابْنُ مُسْهِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ حُدَيْرٍ قَالَ قَالَ

لِي عُمَرُ «هَلْ تَعْرِفُ مَا يَهْدِمُ الْإِسْلَامَ؟» قَالَ قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ «يَهْدِمُهُ زَلَّةُ الْعَالِمِ وَجِدَالُ الْمُنَافِقِ بِالْكِتَابِ وَحُكْمُ الْأَئِمَّةِ الْمُضِلِّينَ»
