Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 5051 — Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ النَّضِرِ الْأَزْدِيُّ قَالَ : نَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو قَالَ : نَا الْمُفَضَّلُ بْنُ صَدَقَةَ ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ السَّائِبِ ، عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ جُمْهَانَ قَالَ : أَتَى ابْنَ عُمَرَ رَجُلٌ وَهُوَ يَمْشِي فِي الْوَادِي ، فَقَالَ : يَا ابْنَ عُمَرَ ، تَأْمُرُنَا بِالسَّعْيِ ، وَأَنْتَ تَمْشِي ؟ قَالَ : لَئِنْ مَشَيْتُ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمْشِي ، وَلَئِنْ سَعَيْتُ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْعَى ، وَأَنَا شَيْخٌ كَبِيرٌ .
It is narrated from Kathir bin Jumhan (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) was walking in the valley when a man came to him and said: "O Ibn Umar! You order us to do sa'y (to run), yet you yourself are walking?" He said: "If I walk, it is (because) I have seen the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) walking, and if I run, I have also seen the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) running; and I have now become a very old man."
