السيوطي:٢-٣١١٤b

"عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ مُقْسِمٍ قَالَ: قَالَ المُغيرَةُ بْنُ شُعْبَةَ لِعُمَرَ: أَلَا أَدُلُّكَ عَلَى القَوِىِّ الأَمِينِ؟ قَالَ: بَلَى، قَالَ: عَبْدُ اللَّه بْنُ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: مَا أَرَدْت بِقَوْلِكَ هَذَا اللَّهَ؟ وَلأَنْ يَمُوتَ فَأُكُفِّنَهُ بِيَدِى أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ أَنْ أُولَيهُ وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ فِى النَّاسِ مَنْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنْهُ".
