حدثنا أحمد بن محمد الكوفي، قال: حدثنا أحمد بن يحيى بن المنذر، قال: حدثنا أبو يحيى الحماني، قال: حدثنا شريك وسمعته يقول: أتاه قوم من قريش في مسجده، فذكروا أبا حنيفة رحمة الله عليه، فقالوا: كيف كان أمره؟ فقال شريك: رجل طرأ علينا لم يكن منَّا غَلَبَ الجميعَ.

Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad al-Kūfī related to us. He said: Aḥmad ibn Yaḥyā ibn al-Mundhir related to us. He said: Abū Yaḥyā al-Ḥimmānī related to us. He said: Sharīk related to us, and I heard him say: Some men of Quraysh came to him in his mosque and mentioned Abū Ḥanīfa, may God have mercy on him. They asked: ‘What was his case?’ Sharīk said: ‘A man who came among us, who was not one of us, surpassed everyone.’
