اجْتَنِبُوا السَّبْعَ الْمُوبِقَاتِ ، قِيلَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَا هُنَّ ؟ قَالَ : الشِّرْكُ بِاللَّهِ ، وَالسِّحْرُ ، وَقَتْلُ النَّفْسِ الَّتِي حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ إِلَّا بِالْحَقِّ ، وَأَكْلُ الرِّبَا ، وَأَكْلُ مَالِ الْيَتِيمِ ، وَالتَّوَلِّي يَوْمَ الزَّحْفِ ، وَقَذْفُ الْمُحْصَنَاتِ الْغَافِلَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ

" ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : أَبُو الْغَيْثِ سَالِمٌ مَوْلَى ابْنِ مُطِيعٍ .
