١٤٧١ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سُفْيَانَ الْحِمْيَرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ قَالَ: كَانَ الْحَسَنُ كَثِيرًا مَا يُرَدِّدُ هَذَيْنِ الْحَرْفَيْنِ: «اللَّهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى حِلْمِكَ بَعْدَ عِلْمِكَ وَلَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى عَفْوِكَ بَعْدَ قُدْرَتِكَ»
