١٠٧ - عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الدّمَشْقِيِّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْقُشَيْرِيِّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيد، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: " إِذَا مَاتَ الْعَبْدُ، وَاللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مِنْهُ شَرًّا، وَيَقُولُ النَّاسُ فِي حَقِّهِ خَيْرًا، قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ: قَدْ قَبِلْتُ شَهَادَةَ عِبَادِي عَلَى عَبْدِي، وَغَفَرْتُ عِلْمِي "
