2135 - حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ كَاسِبٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: رَأَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَيْخًا يَمْشِي بَيْنَ ابْنَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: «مَا شَأْنُ هَذَا؟» قَالَ ابْنَاهُ: نَذْرٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «ارْكَبْ أَيُّهَا الشَّيْخُ، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ غَنِيٌّ عَنْكَ وَعَنْ نَذْرِكَ»
