Hadith 3677

حَدَّثَنِي الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي الْحُسَيْنِ الْمَكِّيُّ ، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، قَالَ : إِنِّي لَوَاقِفٌ فِي قَوْمٍ فَدَعَوْا اللَّهَ لِعُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ وَقَدْ وُضِعَ عَلَى سَرِيرِهِ إِذَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ خَلْفِي قَدْ وَضَعَ مِرْفَقَهُ عَلَى مَنْكِبِي ، يَقُولُ :" رَحِمَكَ اللَّهُ إِنْ كُنْتُ لَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَجْعَلَكَ اللَّهُ مَعَ صَاحِبَيْكَ , لِأَنِّي كَثِيرًا مَا كُنْتُ أَسْمَعُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : كُنْتُ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ , وَعُمَرُ وَفَعَلْتُ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ , وَعُمَرُ وَانْطَلَقْتُ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ , وَعُمَرُ ، فَإِنْ كُنْتُ لَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَجْعَلَكَ اللَّهُ مَعَهُمَا , فَالْتَفَتُّ فَإِذَا هُوَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ " .
Narrated Ibn `Abbas: While I was standing amongst the people who were invoking Allah for `Umar bin Al-Khattab who was lying (dead) on his bed, a man behind me rested his elbows on my shoulder and said, "(O `Umar!) May Allah bestow His Mercy on you. I always hoped that Allah will keep you with your two companions, for I often heard Allah's Apostle saying, "I, Abu Bakr and `Umar were (somewhere). I, Abu Bakr and `Umar did (something). I, Abu Bakr and `Umar set out.' So I hoped that Allah will keep you with both of them." I turned back to see that the speaker was `Ali bin Abi Talib.
