Musnad Abi Ya'la 133 — Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab passed
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرٌو - يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي عَمْرٍو - عَنْ أَبِي الْحُوَيْرِثِ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ : أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ مَرَّ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ ، فَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَاشْتَكَى ذَلِكَ إِلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : مَرَرْتُ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَلَمْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيَّ ، قَالَ : فَأَيْنَ هُوَ ؟ قَالَ : هُوَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ قَاعِدٌ ، قَالَ : فَانْطَلَقْنَا إِلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : مَا مَنَعَكَ أَنْ تَرُدَّ عَلَى أَخِيكَ حِينَ سَلَّمَ عَلَيْكَ ؟ قَالَ : وَاللهِ مَا شَعَرْتُ أَنَّهُ سَلَّمَ ، مَرَّ بِي وَأَنَا أُحَدِّثُ نَفْسِي فَلَمْ أَشْعُرْ أَنَّهُ سَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : فَمَاذَا تُحَدِّثُ نَفْسَكَ ؟ قَالَ : خَلَا بِيَ الشَّيْطَانُ ، فَجَعَلَ يُلْقِي فِي نَفْسِي أَشْيَاءَ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنِّي تَكَلَّمْتُ بِهَا وَأَنَّ لِي مَا عَلَى الْأَرْضِ ، قُلْتُ فِي نَفْسِي حِينَ أَلْقَى الشَّيْطَانُ ذَلِكَ فِي نَفْسِي : يَا لَيْتَنِي سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا الَّذِي يُنْجِينَا مِنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ الَّذِي يُلْقِي الشَّيْطَانُ فِي أَنْفُسِنَا ؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : فَإِنِّي وَاللهِ قَدِ اشْتَكَيْتُ ذَلِكَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَسَأَلْتُهُ : مَا الَّذِي يُنْجِينَا مِنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ الَّذِي يُلْقِي الشَّيْطَانُ مِنْهُ فِي أَنْفُسِنَا ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : يُنْجِيكُمْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ أَنْ تَقُولُوا مِثْلَ الَّذِي أَمَرْتُ بِهِ عَمِّي عِنْدَ الْمَوْتِ فَلَمْ يَفْعَلْ .
It is narrated from Muhammad bin Jubayr (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) while he was sitting in the mosque. He greeted him with salam, but he did not reply. So Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) went to Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and complained to him about the matter, saying: "I passed by Uthman and greeted him, but he did not reply to me." He asked: "Where is he?" Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "He is sitting in the mosque." The narrator says: Then we both set off towards him, and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked him: "What prevented you from returning your brother's greeting?" He replied: "By Allah, I did not even realise that he had greeted me. He passed by me while I was thinking something over within myself, so I did not notice his greeting." Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: "What were you saying within yourself?" He said: "Satan found me alone and began to cast such things into my heart that I would hate to bring them onto my tongue even more than I would like to be given all the wealth and goods of the earth. While Satan was casting those whisperings into my heart, I said to myself: 'If only I had asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) what the word is that saves us from these thoughts that Satan casts into our hearts!'" Then Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "By Allah, I did ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about this; I asked him (peace and blessings be upon him) what it is that saves us from these whisperings that Satan casts into our hearts. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'What will save you from this state is the word that I commanded my uncle to say at the time of his death, but he did not accept it.'"
