Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَخْبَرَنَا الزُّبَيْرُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ فَذَكَرَ حَدِيثًا عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ قَالَ وَحَدَّثَ صَفْوَانُ بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ أَيْضًا عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَتَكَلَّمُ بِالْكَلِمَةِ يُضْحِكُ بِهَا جُلَسَاءَهُ يَهْوِي بِهَا مِنْ أَبْعَدِ مِنْ الثُّرَيَّا.
