الطبراني:٢٦٤٠ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ ثنا جَنْدَلُ بْنُ وَالِقٍ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ الْعِجْلِيُّ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ الْمُنْذِرِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ الْعَبْدِيِّ عَنْ عُلَيْمٍ عَنْ سَلْمَانَ قَالَ

«أَنْزِلُوا آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الرَّأْسِ مِنَ الْجَسَدِ وَبِمَنْزِلَةِ الْعَيْنِ مِنَ الرَّأْسِ فَإِنَّ الْجَسَدَ لَا يَهْتَدِي إِلَّا بِالرَّأْسِ وَإِنَّ الرَّأْسَ لَا يَهْتَدِي إِلَّا بِالْعَيْنَيْنِ»
