Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37642 — The words of Alqamah
٣٧٦٤٢ - حدثنا جعفر بن عون عن مسعر عن عاصم عن أبي وائل قال: ما شبهت قراء زماننا هذا إلا دراهم مزوقة، أو غنم رعت الحمض فنفخت بطونها فذبحت منها شاة فإذا هي لا تنقي (١).
It is narrated from Abu Wa'il that he said: The likeness of the reciters of our time is that of embellished dirhams, or of goats that have grazed on salty shrubs and their bellies have swollen. Then when one of those goats is slaughtered, there is no marrow in it.
