Arabic text

6234 - وَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ طَهْمَانَ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ سُلَيْمٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يُسَلِّمُ الصَّغِيرُ عَلَى الكَبِيرِ، وَالمَارُّ عَلَى القَاعِدِ، وَالقَلِيلُ عَلَى الكَثِيرِ»
