حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَدْرٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عُتْبَةَ إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ سُلَيْمٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ الْمُکَاتَبُ عَبْدٌ مَا بَقِيَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ مُکَاتَبَتِهِ دِرْهَمٌ
