أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، - هُوَ ابْنُ السَّكَنِ أَبُو عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ الضَّبِّيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي نَصْرٍ الْهِلاَلِيِّ، عَنْ رَجَاءِ بْنِ حَيْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ، قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مُرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ عَلَيْكَ بِالصَّوْمِ فَإِنَّهُ لاَ عِدْلَ لَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مُرْنِي بِعَمَلٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ عَلَيْكَ بِالصَّوْمِ فَإِنَّهُ لاَ عِدْلَ لَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏
