النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ حَبِيبٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا أُمَامَةَ ، يَقُولُ : "

لَقَدْ فَتَحَ الْفُتُوحَ قَوْمٌ مَا كَانَتْ حِلْيَةُ سُيُوفِهِمُ الذَّهَبَ ، وَلَا الْفِضَّةَ إِنَّمَا كَانَتْ حِلْيَتُهُمُ الْعَلَابِيَّ ، وَالْآنُكَ وَالْحَدِيدَ
