“It would not please me to own everything that Basra holds of wealth and produce even for two copper coins.”
١٣١ - حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ، قَالَ: ثنا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي مُعَاذُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الْوَاحِدِ بْنَ زَيْدٍ، غَيْرَ مَرَّةٍ يَقُولُ: مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّ لِي جَمِيعَ مَا حَوَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْبَصْرَةُ مِنَ الْأَمْوَالِ وَالثَّمَرَةِ بِفَلْسَيْنِ
