حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي قَالَ، سَمِعْتُ أَنَسًا، قَالَ ذُكِرَ لِي أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ لِمُعَاذٍ ‏"‏ مَنْ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ لاَ يُشْرِكُ بِهِ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ أَلاَ أُبَشِّرُ النَّاسَ قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ، إِنِّي أَخَافُ أَنْ يَتَّكِلُوا ‏"‏‏.‏
