al-Hamm wa al-Huzn 124

Ibn Abi al-Dunya

«قَالَ: قِيلَ لِعُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شُمَيْطٍ: كَانَ أَبُوكَ يَبْكِي؟ قَالَ: «عَمَلُهُ يَبْكِي»»

Its text does not say these are the Prophet’s words ﷺ, so they are not framed in gold.

The text as printed

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي مُفَضَّلُ الْبَصْرِيُّ، قَالَ: قِيلَ لِعُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ شُمَيْطٍ: كَانَ أَبُوكَ يَبْكِي؟ قَالَ: «عَمَلُهُ يَبْكِي»
