Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Masood that he says a young man came to Hazrat Umar. He began to praise Hazrat Umar. The narrator says that during this, Hazrat Umar saw him pulling his lower garment. The narrator says Hazrat Umar said to the young man, "O nephew! Raise your lower garment. For this is closer to piety in the sight of your Lord and cleaner for your clothes." The narrator says thus Hazrat Abdullah used to say, "Hazrat Umar was indeed remarkable. When he saw the right of Allah upon himself, the state in which the young man was did not prevent him from fulfilling that right." (That is, despite the praise, he spoke the word of truth.)
