حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ بْنِ جَابِرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَرْطَاةَ، عَنْ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ نُفَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ ابْغُونِي ضُعَفَاءَكُمْ فَإِنَّمَا تُرْزَقُونَ وَتُنْصَرُونَ بِضُعَفَائِكُمْ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏

Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Musa reported to us from Abdullah ibn al-Mubarak, who said: Abd al-Rahman ibn Yazid ibn Jabir reported to us; Zayd ibn Arta ah reported to us from Jubayr ibn Nufayr, from Abu al-Darda, who said: I heard the Prophet say: Seek out your weak ones for me, for you are provided for and given victory only through your weak ones.

Abu Isa said: This hadith is hasan sahih.
