Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 8937

وَعَنْ أَبِي الْبَخْتَرِيِّ قَالَ : قَالَ عُمَرُ لِأَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ : ابْسُطْ يَدَكَ حَتَّى أُبَايِعَكَ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : " أَنْتَ أَمِينُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ " . فَقَالَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ : مَا كُنْتُ لِأَتَقَدَّمَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَجُلٍ أَمَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أَنْ يَؤُمَّنَا فَأَمَّنَا حَتَّى مَاتَ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ إِلَّا أَنَّ أَبَا الْبَخْتَرِيِّ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ عُمَرَ .
Abu al-Bakhtari narrates: Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyiduna Abu Ubaydah (may Allah be pleased with him): "Stretch out your hand so that I may pledge allegiance to you, for I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'This one is the trustworthy one of this Ummah.'" Sayyiduna Abu Ubaydah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I will not go ahead of a man whom the Messenger of Allah ordered to lead us in prayer, and who continued to lead us until the passing of the Messenger of Allah."
Ahmad recorded it; its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except that the narrator Abu al-Bakhtari did not hear from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him).
