١٠٣٣ - وَأَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ، أَنَّ الْفَضْلَ حَدَّثَهُمْ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ سُئِلَ عَنْ نُقْصَانِ الْإِيمَانِ، فَقَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: «مَا نَقَصَتْ أَمَانَةُ عَبْدٍ إِلَّا نَقَصَ مِنْ إِيمَانِهِ»
