٩٩٦ - وَأَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ قَالَ: ثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ مَزْيَدَ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا أَبِي قَالَ: ثنا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، ثنا الزُّهْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي حُمَيْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «كُلُّ مَوْلُودٍ يُولَدُ عَلَى الْفِطْرَةِ فَأَبَوَاهُ يُهَوِّدَانِهِ وَيُمَجِّسَانِهِ وَيُنَصِّرَانِهِ» قَالَ الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ: لَا يُخْرِجَانِهِ مِنْ عِلْمِ اللَّهِ وَإِلَى عِلْمِ اللَّهِ يَصِيرُونَ أَخْرَجَهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ، وَمُسْلِمٌ
