234 – ʿAbd Allāh narrated to us; he said: Fudayl ibn ʿAbd al-Wahhāb narrated to us; he said: Jarīr narrated to us, from Manṣūr, from Khaythama, who said:
“I read in the Gospel that the keys to Qarun’s treasuries alone amounted to a load for sixty well-bred, white-marked mules. Each key was about the thickness of a finger, and every key corresponded to its own vault.”
٢٣٤ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا فُضَيْلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ، قَالَ: قَرَأْتُ فِي الْإِنْجِيلِ: «إِنَّ مَفَاتِيحَ كُنُوزِ قَارُونَ وِقْرُ سِتِّينَ بَغْلًا غُرًّا مُحَجَّلَةً، كُلُّ مِفْتَاحٍ مِنْهَا عَلَى قَدْرِ إِصْبَحٍ، لِكُلِّ مِفْتَاحٍ مِنْهَا كَنْزٌ»
