Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37207 — The words of Umar bin al-Khattab
٣٧٢٠٧ - حدثنا يحيى بن عيسى عن الأعمش عن إبراهيم عن همام عن حذيفة قال: دخلت على عمر وهو قاعد على جذع في داره، وهو يحدث نفسه فدنوت منه فقلت: ما الذي أهمك يا أمير المؤمنين؟ فقال: هكذا بيده وأشار بها، قال: قلت: الذي يهمك، واللَّه لو رأينا منك أمرا ننكره لقومناك، قال: آللَّهِ الذي لا إله إلا هو، لو رأيتم مني أمرا تنكرونه لقومتموه، فقلت: آللَّهِ الذي لا إله إلا هو، لو رأينا منك أمرا ننكره لقومناك، قال: ففرح بذلك فرحا شديدا، ⦗٣١٨⦘ وقال: الحمد للَّه الذي جعل فيكم أصحاب محمد (١) من الذي [إذا رأى مني أمرا ينكره قومني (٢).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I went to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) while he was sitting on a palm trunk in his house, talking to himself. I drew near him and asked: "O Commander of the Faithful! What has made you anxious?" He gestured with his hands and said something. The narrator said: I said: "What has made you anxious? By Allah! If we see anything objectionable from you, we will set you straight." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "By Allah, besides whom there is none worthy of worship! If you see anything objectionable from me, will you set me straight?" I said: "By Allah, besides whom there is none worthy of worship! If we see anything objectionable from you, we will certainly set you straight." The narrator said: At this Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) became very happy and said: "All praise is for Allah, who has placed among you the Companions of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) (may Allah be pleased with them), who, if they see anything objectionable even from me, will set me straight."
