1041 - Muhammad ibn 'Ali informed us, saying: Abu Bakr al-Athram narrated to us, saying: It was said to Abu 'Abd Allah: 'What about the statement that faith increases and decreases?' He replied: 'The hadith of the Prophet (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) indicates that, in his saying: "Remove whoever has such-and-such in his heart, remove whoever has such-and-such in his heart." This indicates that.'
١٠٤١ - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ: ثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْأَثْرَمُ، قَالَ: قِيلَ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: فَقَوْلُ: الْإِيمَانُ يَزِيدُ وَيَنْقُصُ، فَقَالَ: حَدِيثُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدُلُّ عَلَى ذَلِكَ، قَوْلُهُ: «أَخْرِجُوا مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ كَذَا، أَخْرِجُوا مَنْ كَانَ فِي قَلْبِهِ كَذَا» ، فَهَذَا يَدُلُّ عَلَى ذَاكَ "
