عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " لَوْ كَانَ الْعِلْمُ بِالثُّرَيَّا لَتَنَاوَلَهُ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَبْنَاءِ فَارِسَ " . قُلْتُ : هُوَ فِي الصَّحِيحِ غَيْرُ قَوْلِهِ : " الْعِلْمُ " . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ شَهْرٌ ، وَثَّقَهُ أَحْمَدُ وَفِيهِ خِلَافٌ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
