حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ تَمِيمًا الدَّارِيَّ، يَقُولُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا السُّنَّةُ فِي الرَّجُلِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ يُسْلِمُ عَلَى يَدَىِ الرَّجُلِ قَالَ " هُوَ أَوْلَى النَّاسِ بِمَحْيَاهُ وَمَمَاتِهِ " .

"I heard Tamim Ad-Darisay: 'I said: O Messenger of Allah, what is the Sunnah concerningaman from among the People of the Book who becomes a Muslim at thehands of another man?' He said: 'He is the closest of all peopletohim in life and in death.'"
