ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا : قَدْ كَانَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ , يَقُولُ بَعْضَ ذَلِكَ ، ثُمَّ حَدَّثَ , قَالَ : صَدَرْتُ مَعَ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ مِنْ مَكَّةَ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِالْبَيْدَاءِ إِذَا هُوَ بِرَكْبٍ تَحْتَ ظِلِّ سَمُرَةٍ , فَقَالَ : اذْهَبْ فَانْظُرْ مَنْ هَؤُلَاءِ الرَّكْبُ ، قَالَ : فَنَظَرْتُ ، فَإِذَا صُهَيْبٌ , فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ , فَقَالَ : ادْعُهُ لِي فَرَجَعْتُ إِلَى صُهَيْبٍ , فَقُلْتُ : ارْتَحِلْ فَالْحَقْ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ، فَلَمَّا أُصِيبَ عُمَرُ دَخَلَ صُهَيْبٌ يَبْكِي , يَقُولُ : وَا أَخَاهُ وَا صَاحِبَاهُ ، فَقَالَ
عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : يَا صُهَيْبُ أَتَبْكِي عَلَيَّ , وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : إِنَّ الْمَيِّتَ يُعَذَّبُ بِبَعْضِ بُكَاءِ أَهْلِهِ عَلَيْهِ .
Ibn `Abbas said, "`Umar used to say so." Then he added narrating, "I accompanied `Umar on a journey from Mecca till we reached Al-Baida. There he saw some travelers in the shade of a Samura (A kind of forest tree). He said (to me), "Go and see who those travelers are." So I went and saw that one of them was Suhaib. I told this to `Umar who then asked me to call him. So I went back to Suhaib and said to him, "Depart and follow the chief of the faithful believers." Later, when `Umar was stabbed, Suhaib came in weeping and saying, "O my brother, O my friend!" (on this `Umar said to him, "O Suhaib! Are you weeping for me while the Prophet said, "The dead person is punished by some of the weeping of his relatives?"
