الطبراني:٨٣٧١ – حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو زُرْعَةَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ثنا أَبُو الْجُمَاهِرِ ثنا خُلَيْدُ بْنُ دَعْلَجٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ كِلَابِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ أَنَّهُ لَقِيَ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ أَبِي الْعَاصِ فَقَالَ مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ فَقَالَ اسْتُعْمِلْتُ عَلَى عُشْرِ الْأُبُلَّةِ فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ إِنِّي

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ اللهَ يَدْنُو مِنْ خَلْقِهِ فَيَغْفِرُ لِمَنِ اسْتَغْفِرَ إِلَّا لِبَغِيٍّ بِفَرْجِهَا أَوْ لِعَشَّارٍ»
