حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ آدَمَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَقَ قَالَ لَمَّا أَحْدَثُوا تِلْکَ الْأَشْيَائَ بَعْدَ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ عَلِيٍّ قَاتَلَهُمْ اللَّهُ أَيَّ عِلْمٍ أَفْسَدُوا
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 24
