11 - وحدثنا محمد بن همام بن سهيل قال حدثنا عبد الله بن العلاء المذاري قال حدثنا إدريس بن زياد الكوفي قال: حدثنا بعض شيوخنا قال: قال المفضل:
أخذت بيدك كما أخذ أبو عبد الله بيدي وقال لي: يا مُفَضّلُ! إنّ هذا الأمر ليسَ بالقَولِ فقَط، لا واللهِ حتىّ يَصونَهُ كَما صانهُ اللهُ ويُشَرّفهُ كما شَرّفهُ اللهُ ويُؤدّي حقَّه كمَا أمرَ اللهُ.
(11) Muhammad bin Hammam bin Suhayl narrated from Abdullah bin al-Ala’ al-Mathari from Idreess bin Ziyad al-Kufi from one of his sheikhs
that al-Mufadhdhal had said to him: “I hold your hand as Abu Abdullah 
has held my hand and said to me: “O Mufadhdhal, this matter is not achieved by saying only. No, by Allah, it is not so until (our companions) preserve it as Allah has preserved it, honor it as Allah has honored it and care for it deservingly as Allah has ordered.”
