وَدَلِيلٌ هَذَا أَنَّ إِنْتِفَاعَ النَّاسِ بِتَصَانِيفِ الْمُتَقَدِّمِينَ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ إِنْتِفَاعِهِمْ بِمَا يَسْتَفِيدُونَهُ مِنْ مَشَايِخِهِمْ؛
The proof of this is that people benefit more from the works of earlier scholars than from what they gain from their teachers.
بِتَصَانِيفِ — by works. This attaches the instrument-preposition 'by/with' to a plural noun, marking the works as the means people benefit through. The preposition forces the noun into the after-preposition case and links the benefiting to its source.
