النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ ، عَنْ مُخْتَارِ بْنِ فُلْفُلٍ ، يَذْكُرُ عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَجُلٌ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ "

يَا خَيْرَ الْبَرِيَّةِ ، فَقَالَ 0 رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : ذَاكَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ
