3358 - وَ رَوَى عَمْرُو بْنُ جُمَيْعٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ : "أَشْهِدْ عَلَى شَهَادَتِكَ مَنْ يَنْصَحُكَ" قَالُوا أَصْلَحَكَ اَللَّهُ كَيْفَ يَزِيدُ وَ يَنْقُصُ قَالَ "لاَ وَ لَكِنْ مَنْ يَحْفَظُهَا عَلَيْكَ". وَ لَا تَجُوزُ شَهَادَةٌ عَلَى شَهَادَةٍ عَلَى شَهَادَةٍ.
