٣٥٩٢٠ - حدثنا وكيع قال: ثنا المنذر بن ثعلبة عن عبد اللَّه بن بريدة قال: قال عمر لأبي بكر (لما) (١) لم (يدع) (٢) (عمرو الناس) (٣) أن يوقدوا نارا: ألا ترى إلى هذا الذي منع الناس منافعهم؟ قال: فقال أبو بكر: دعه (فإنما) (٤) ولاه رسول اللَّه ﷺ علينا لعلمه بالحرب (٥).
Hazrat Abdullah bin Buraidah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), when Hazrat Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) forbade people from lighting a fire, "Do you see this person who has prevented people from their benefit?" Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) replied, "Leave him; due to his expertise in war strategies, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ appointed him as our leader."
