حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْقُدُّوسِ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ، حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الْمُخَارِقِ زُهَيْرُ بْنُ سَالِمٍ، أَنَّ عُمَيْرَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ كَانَ وَلَّاهُ عُمَرُ حِمْصَ ... فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ، قَالَ عُمَرُ - يَعْنِي لِكَعْبٍ -: إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ أَمْرٍ فَلا تَكْتُمْنِي. قَالَ: وَاللهِ لَا أَكْتُمُكَ شَيْئًا أَعْلَمُهُ. قَالَ: مَا أَخْوَفُ شَيْءٍ تَخَوَّفُهُ عَلَى أُمَّةِ، ، مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: أَئِمَّةً مُضِلِّينَ. قَالَ عُمَرُ: صَدَقْتَ، قَدْ أَسَرَّ ذَلِكَ إِلَيَّ وَأَعْلَمَنِيهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ (١) .،
