قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ : أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سِنَانٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ مَكْحُولٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ لِعُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ حَقٌّ ، فَأَتَاهُ يَطْلُبُهُ ، فَلَقِيَهُ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : لَا وَالَّذِي اصْطَفَى مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الْبَشَرِ ، لَا أُفَارِقُكَ وَأَنَا أَطْلُبُكَ بِشَيْءٍ ، فَقَالَ الْيَهُودِيُّ : وَاللهِ مَا اصْطَفَى إِلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدًا عَلَى الْبَشَرِ ، فَلَطَمَهُ عُمَرُ ، فَقَالَ : بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَكَ أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ عُمَرَ قَالَ : لَا وَالَّذِي اصْطَفَى مُحَمَّدًا عَلَى الْبَشَرِ ، قُلْتُ : وَاللهِ مَا اصْطَفَى اللهُ مُحَمَّدًا عَلَى الْبَشَرِ ، فَلَطَمَنِي ، فَقَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا عُمَرُ فَأَرْضِهِ مِنْ لَطْمَتِهِ ، بَلْ يَا يَهُودِيُّ ، آدَمُ صَفِيُّ اللهِ ، وَإِبْرَاهِيمُ خَلِيلُ اللهِ ، وَمُوسَى نَجِيُّ اللهِ ، وَعِيسَى رُوحُ اللهِ ، وَأَنَا حَبِيبُ اللهِ ، بَلْ يَا يَهُودِيُّ تَسَمَّى اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِاسْمَيْنِ سَمَّى بِهِمَا أُمَّتِي : هُوَ السَّلَامُ وَسَمَّى بِهَا أُمَّتِي الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، وَهُوَ الْمُؤْمِنُ وَسَمَّى بِهَا أُمَّتِي الْمُؤْمِنِينَ .
بَلْ يَا يَهُودِيٌّ ، طَلَبْتُمْ يَوْمًا ذُخِرَ لَنَا ، لَنَا الْيَوْمُ ، وَلَكُمْ غَدًا ، وَبَعْدَ غَدٍ لِلنَّصَارَى ، بَلْ يَا يَهُودِيُّ ، أَنْتُمُ الْأَوَّلُونَ وَنَحْنُ الْآخِرُونَ السَّابِقُونَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ، بَلْ وَالْجَنَّةُ مُحَرَّمَةٌ عَلَى الْأَنْبِيَاءِ حَتَّى أَدْخُلَهَا ، وَهِيَ مُحَرَّمَةٌ عَلَى الْأُمَمِ حَتَّى تَدْخُلَهَا أُمَّتِي .

It is narrated from Makhul (may Allah have mercy on him) that a Jewish man owed Sayyiduna Umar al-Faruq (may Allah be pleased with him) some financial right (a debt). So he went to him to claim his right, and when he met him, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said (during the conversation): "No, by the One who chose and selected Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) over all mankind, I will not leave you until I have collected my right from you." At this the Jew said: "By Allah, Allah did not select Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) over all mankind." Hearing this, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) slapped him. The Jew said: "Abu al-Qasim (Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)) will judge between me and you." (When they reached the court of the Messenger) he said: Umar said, "No, by the One who selected Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) over all mankind," and I said in reply, "By Allah, Allah did not select Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) over all mankind," whereupon he slapped me. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Umar, as for you, make him content by compensating him for his slap." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Jew, listen: Adam (peace be upon him) is Safiyyullah (the chosen one of Allah), Ibrahim (peace be upon him) is Khalilullah (the intimate friend of Allah), Musa (peace be upon him) is Najiyyullah (the one who conversed intimately with Allah), Isa (peace be upon him) is Ruhullah (a spirit from Allah), and I am Habibullah (the beloved of Allah). Rather, O Jew, Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has named my Ummah with two of His own names: He Himself is al-Salam (the Source of Peace), and after it He named my Ummah al-Muslimin (the Muslims); and He Himself is al-Mu'min (the Giver of Security), and with that name He named my Ummah al-Mu'minin (the believers).
Rather, O Jew, you people sought a day (a special day of worship) that had been stored up for us. So today (Friday) is ours, tomorrow (Saturday) is yours, and the day after (Sunday) is for the Christians. O Jew, you came first (in the world), but we, despite being the last, will be the foremost on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed, Paradise is forbidden to all the prophets until I enter it, and it is forbidden to all the nations until my Ummah enters it."
