حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عُمَيْرَةَ، قَالَ : لَمَّا حَضَرَ مُعَاذَ بْنَ جَبَلٍ الْمَوْتُ قِيلَ لَهُ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَوْصِنَا ، قَالَ : أَجْلِسُونِي ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ الْعِلْمَ وَالْإِيمَانَ مَكَانَهُمَا مَنَ ابْتَغَاهُمَا وَجَدَهُمَا ، يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ، وَالْتَمِسُوا الْعِلْمَ عِنْدَ أَرْبَعَةِ رَهْطٍ : عِنْدَ عُوَيْمِرٍ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ ، وَعِنْدَ سَلْمَانَ الْفَارِسِيِّ ، وَعِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، وَعِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَلَامٍ الَّذِي كَانَ يَهُودِيًّا فَأَسْلَمَ ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " إِنَّهُ عَاشِرُ عَشَرَةٍ فِي الْجَنَّةِ " . وَفِي الْبَابِ ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ ، قَالَ : وَهَذَا حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ .
´Narrated Yazid bin 'Umairah:` "When death was upon Mu'adh bin Jabal, it was said to him: 'O Abu 'Abdur-Rahman, advise us.' He said: 'Sit me up.' So he said: 'Indeed, knowledge and faith are at their place, whoever desires them shall find them.' He said that three times. 'And seek knowledge from four men: 'Uwaimir Abu Ad-Darda, with Salman Al-Farisi, with 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud, and with 'Abdullah bin Salam who used to be a Jew and then accepted Islam. For indeed, I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) saying, "Indeed he is the tenth of ten in Paradise."
