Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 31490 — What is mentioned from Abu Bakr
٣١٤٩٠ - حدثنا يزيد بن هارون عن العوام] (١) (عن إبراهيم التيمي قال: قال رجل عند عمر) (٢): اللهم اجعلني من القليل، قال: فقال عمر: ما هذا الذي تدعو به؟ فقال: إني سمعت اللَّه يقول: ﴿وَقَلِيلٌ مِنْ عِبَادِيَ الشَّكُورُ﴾ [سبأ: ١٣]، فأنا أدعو أن يجعلني من أولئك القليل، قال: فقال عمر: كل الناس أعلم من عمر (٣).
Ibrahim al-Taymi said that a man supplicated in the presence of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): O Allah, make me one of the few. The narrator said: Sayyiduna Umar asked: What is this supplication you have made? The man said: I heard Allah, the Lord of Might, say: "And very few of My servants are grateful." So I am supplicating to Allah to make me one of those few servants. The narrator said: Then Sayyiduna Umar said: All people are more knowledgeable than Umar.
