The words of Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37202 — The words of Umar bin al-Khattab
٣٧٢٠٢ - حدثنا عفان قال: حدثنا سليمان بن المغيرة قال: قال ثابت: قال أنس: غلا (السعر) (١) غلا (الطعام) (٢) بالمدينة (على عهد عمر) (٣)، فجعل يأكل الشعير فاستنكره بطنه، فأهوى بيده إلى بطنه فقال: واللَّه ما هو إلا ما ترى، حتى يوسع اللَّه على المسلمين (٤).
Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says: Prices rose, and food became expensive in Madinah in the time of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) began eating barley, and it did not agree with his stomach. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) pointed with his hand towards his stomach and said: "By Allah! Until Allah Almighty grants ease to the Muslims, you will eat only this."
