Arabic text

258 - حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَخْزَمَ، وَأَبُو بدْرٍ عَبَّادُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ الْهُنَائِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ الْهُنَائِيُّ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ السَّخْتِيَانِيِّ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ دُرَيْكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ طَلَبَ الْعِلْمَ لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ، أَوْ أَرَادَ بِهِ غَيْرَ اللَّهِ، فَلْيَتَبَوَّأْ مَقْعَدَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ»
