Al-MutamanninIbn Abi al-Dunya

76 – Ahmad ibn Ibrahim related to us; Ghassan ibn al-Mufaddal related to us. He said: Sufyan—meaning al-‘Asfuri—asked Bishr ibn Mansur, “Would it please you to possess one hundred thousand?” He replied, “If these two were to fall out”—and he pointed to his eyes—“that is dearer to me than that.”

٧٦ - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا غَسَّانُ بْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ، قَالَ: قَالَ سُفْيَانُ يَعْنِي الْعُصْفُرِيَّ، لِبِشْرِ بْنِ مَنْصُورٍ: " يَسُرُّكَ أَنَّ لَكَ مِائَةَ أَلْفٍ؟ فَقَالَ: لَئِنْ تَنْدُرَا - وَأَشَارَ إِلَى عَيْنَيْهِ - أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ ذَلِكَ "
