Arabic text

1 - أخبرنا أحمد بن محمد بن سعيد بن عقدة قال: حدثنا حميد بن زياد، قال: حدثنا جعفر بن إسماعيل المنقري، قال: أخبرني شيخ بمصر يقال له: الحسين بن أحمد المقرئ، عن يونس بن ظبيان قال: قال أبو عبد الله في قول الله وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ تَرَى الَّذِينَ كَذَبُوا عَلَى اللَّهِ وُجُوهُهُمْ مُسْوَدَّةٌ ۚ أَلَيْسَ فِي جَهَنَّمَ مَثْوًى لِلْمُتَكَبِّرِينَ قال: مَن زعم أنه إمام وليس بإمامٍ.

Translation
