أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ آدَمَ، عَنْ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ عِلْمٍ لاَ يَنْفَعُ وَمِنْ قَلْبٍ لاَ يَخْشَعُ وَمِنْ نَفْسٍ لاَ تَشْبَعُ وَمِنْ دُعَاءٍ لاَ يُسْمَعُ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ سَعِيدٌ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهُ مِنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ بَلْ سَمِعَهُ مِنْ أَخِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ‏.‏

Translation

Muhammad ibn Adam reported to us, from Abu Khalid, from Muhammad ibn ʿAjlan, from Saʿid, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ‘O Allah, I seek refuge in You from knowledge that brings no benefit, from a heart that is not humble, from a soul that is never satisfied, and from a supplication that is not heard.’ Abu ʿAbd al-Rahman said: ‘Saʿid did not hear it from Abu Hurayrah; rather, he heard it from his brother, from Abu Hurayrah.’
