وَعَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ : أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " بَيْنَا أَنَا أَنْزِعُ اللَّيْلَةَ إِذْ وَرَدَتْ عَلَيَّ غَنَمٌ سُودٌ وَعُفْرٌ ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَنَزَعَ ذَنُوبًا أَوْ ذَنُوبِينَ وَفِي نَزْعِهِ ضَعْفٌ ، وَاللَّهُ يَغْفِرُ لَهُ ، فَجَاءَ عُمَرُ فَاسْتَحَالَتْ غَرْبًا ، فَمَلَأَ الْحِيَاضَ وَأَرْوَى الْوَارِدَةَ ; فَلَمْ أَرَ عَبْقَرِيًّا أَحْسَنَ نَزْعًا مِنْ عُمَرَ ، فَأَوَّلْتُ السُّودَ : الْعَرَبَ ، وَالْعُفْرَ : الْعَجَمَ " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَإِسْنَادُهُ حَسَنٌ .

Sayyiduna Abu al-Tufayl (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Last night (in a dream) I was drawing water when black and greyish sheep came to me. Then Abu Bakr came and drew one or two buckets, and there was weakness in his drawing; may Allah Almighty forgive him. Then Umar came, and it became a huge bucket; he filled the troughs and gave water to all who came. I have not seen anyone as diligent as Umar at drawing water. I interpreted this to mean that the black sheep are the Arabs and the greyish sheep are the non-Arabs ('Ajam)."
