866 – ʿAbd Allah narrated to us; my father narrated to me; Wakiʿ narrated to us, from Misʿar, from Maʿn, who said: ʿAbd Allah said, “If you are able, be the one who is personally addressed; and whenever you hear Allah saying, ‘O you who believe,’ lend it your ear, for it is either a good that He is commanding or an evil that He is forbidding.”
٨٦٦ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ، عَنْ مَعْنٍ قَالَ: قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: إِنِ اسْتَطَعْتَ أَنْ تَكُونَ أَنْتَ الْمُحَدَّثَ، وَإِذَا سَمِعْتَ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ ﴿يَأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا﴾ فَارْعَهَا سَمْعَكَ؛ فَإِنَّهُ خَيْرٌ يَأْمُرُ بِهِ أَوْ شَرٌّ يَنْهَى عَنْهُ "
