3557 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ المَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «بُعِثْتُ مِنْ خَيْرِ قُرُونِ بَنِي آدَمَ، قَرْنًا فَقَرْنًا، حَتَّى كُنْتُ مِنَ القَرْنِ الَّذِي كُنْتُ فِيهِ»
