1) this news was mentioned in bahjat almajalis 1117 as follows ziyad said to his companions who is the most enviable person in life? they said the prince and his companions. he said you have done nothing. the sticks of the pulpits are aweinspiring and the clanking of the bridle of the mail is frightening. but the most enviable person in my opinion is a man who has a house whose rent does not run out and who has a righteous wife who is pleased with him and whom he is pleased with so they are content with their life. he does not know us and we do not know him. if he knew us and we knew him we would tire him out for his sake and his day and we would corrupt his religion and his worldly life.
 ورد هذا الخبر في بهجة المجالس ١ ١١٧ على النحو الآتي قال زياد لجلساته من أغبط عيشا؛ قالوا الأمير وجلساؤه، فقال ما صنعتم شيئا إن لأعواد المنابر هيبة، وان لقرع لجام البريد لفزعة، لكن اغبط الناس عندي رجل له دار لا يجري عليه كرؤها، وله زوجة صالحة قد رضيته ورضيها فهما راضيان بعيشهما، لا يعرفنا ولا نعرفه، فإنه إن عرفنا وعرفناه اتعبنا لليه ونهاره، وأفسدنا دينه ودنياه.
