The Sages (Avos 6:6) teach: ha'omer davar b'shem omro ("one who says something in the name of the person who originally said it"). We have learned that one who says something in the name of the one who originally said it brings geulah (redemption) to the world, as it is stated, "And Esther told the king in the name of Mordechai" (Esther 2:22).
It is not clear whether this applies also to something one heard from a non-Jew.
Anyone knows a source whether one must also do this for something heard from a non-Jew?
