أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ بَخْتِيَارَ السَّمَرْقَنْدِيُّ، قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ الْمَنْصُورَ عَنْ قَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى: ﴿قُلْ هَذِهِ سَبِيلِي أَدْعُو إِلَى اللَّهِ عَلَى بَصِيرَةٍ أَنَا وَمَنِ اتَّبَعَنِي ۖ﴾، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ الْأَرْضَ لَا تَخْلُو مِنْ رَجُلٍ يَتَّبِعُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، وَهُوَ الدَّاعِي إِلَى اللَّهِ عَلَى بَصِيرَةٍ بَعْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ.

Translation:

Abd al-Hamid ibn Bakhtiar al-Samarqandi informed us, he said: I asked Mansoor about the words of God Almighty that says: “Say, this is my way that I invite toward God with insight, I and whoever follows me”, so he said: The earth is not empty of one who follows the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him and his household, in everything, and he is the one who invites toward God with insight after the Prophet, peace and blessings of God be upon him and his household.
