Musnad of Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 184 — he delivered a sermon one Friday in which he
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ ، عَنْ مَعْدَانَ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ خَطَبَ يَوْمَ جُمُعَةٍ ، فَذَكَرَ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ، وَذَكَرَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ ، فَقَالَ : إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ كَأَنَّ دِيكًا نَقَرَنِي نَقْرَةً أَوْ نَقْرَتَيْنِ ، وَإِنِّي لَا أُرَاهُ إِلَّا لِحُضُورِ أَجَلِي ، وَإِنَّ أَقْوَامًا يَأْمُرُونَنِي أَنْ أَسْتَخْلِفَ ، وَإِنَّ اللهَ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِيُضِيعَ دِينَهُ وَلَا خِلَافَتَهُ ، وَلَا الَّذِي بَعَثَ بِهِ نَبِيَّهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَإِنِّي قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ أَقْوَامًا سَيَطْعَنُونَ فِي هَذَا الْأَمْرِ ، أَنَا ضَرَبْتُهُمْ بِيَدِي هَذِهِ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ ، فَإِنْ فَعَلُوا فَأُولَئِكَ أَعْدَاءُ اللهِ الْكُفَّارُ الضُّلَّالُ ، فَإِنْ عَجِلَ بِي أَمْرٌ فَالْخِلَافَةُ شُورَى بَيْنَ هَؤُلَاءِ النَّفَرِ الَّذِينَ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ عَنْهُمْ رَاضٍ ، وَإِنِّي لَا أَدَعُ بَعْدِي شَيْئًا أَهَمَّ إِلَيَّ مِنَ الْكَلَالَةِ ، وَمَا رَاجَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي شَيْءٍ مَا رَاجَعْتُهُ فِي الْكَلَالَةِ ، وَمَا أَغْلَظَ لِي فِي شَيْءٍ مَا أَغْلَظَ لِي فِيهِ ، حَتَّى طَعَنَ بِإِصْبَعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي ، وَقَالَ لِي : يَا عُمَرُ ، أَلَا تَكْفِيكَ آيَةُ الصَّيْفِ الَّتِي فِي آخِرِ سُورَةِ النِّسَاءِ ؟ وَإِنِّي إِنْ أَعِشْ أَقْضِ فِيهِ بِقَضِيَّةٍ يَقْضِي بِهَا مَنْ يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ وَمَنْ لَا يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ . ثُمَّ قَالَ : اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ عَلَى أُمَرَاءِ الْأَمْصَارِ ، فَإِنَّمَا بَعَثْتُهُمْ لِيُعَلِّمُوهُمْ دِينَهُمْ وَسُنَّةَ نَبِيِّهِمْ وَيَعْدِلُوا عَلَيْهِمْ ، وَيَقْسِمُوا لَهُمْ فَيْئَهُمْ ، وَيَرْفَعُوا إِلَيَّ مَا أَشْكَلَ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْ عَلَيْهِمْ .
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ تَأْكُلُونَ مِنْ شَجَرَتَيْنِ لَا أُرَاهُمَا إِلَّا خَبِيثَتَيْنِ : هَذَا الْبَصَلُ وَالثُّومُ ، لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا وَجَدَ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ رِيحَهُمَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ أَمَرَ بِهِ فَأُخْرِجَ إِلَى الْبَقِيعِ ، فَمَنْ أَكَلَهُمَا فَلْيُمِتْهُمَا طَبْخًا .
ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ تَأْكُلُونَ مِنْ شَجَرَتَيْنِ لَا أُرَاهُمَا إِلَّا خَبِيثَتَيْنِ : هَذَا الْبَصَلُ وَالثُّومُ ، لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا وَجَدَ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ رِيحَهُمَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ أَمَرَ بِهِ فَأُخْرِجَ إِلَى الْبَقِيعِ ، فَمَنْ أَكَلَهُمَا فَلْيُمِتْهُمَا طَبْخًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that he delivered a sermon one Friday in which he mentioned the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him). Then he said: "I saw in a dream that a rooster pecked me once or twice, and I interpret it only to mean that the time of my death has drawn near. Some people are demanding of me that I appoint my successor, but Allah Almighty will never let His religion, His caliphate, or the mission with which He sent His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) be lost. I know that soon some people will attack this matter of the caliphate, people whom I myself struck with these hands of mine for the sake of Islam; if they do so, then they are the enemies of Allah, disbelievers and misguided. If some sudden event befalls me, then the matter of the caliphate will rest on mutual consultation (shura) among these persons with whom the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was pleased at the time of his death. And I am not leaving behind me anything more important than the issue of kalalah (a deceased person who leaves neither father nor son). I did not go back to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about any matter as often as I did about kalalah, until he (peace and blessings be upon him) was sterner with me on this matter than he had been on anything else, to the extent that he (peace and blessings be upon him) jabbed his blessed finger into my chest and said to me: 'O Umar! Is the Verse of Summer (Ayat al-Sayf) revealed at the end of Surah al-Nisa' not sufficient for you?' And if I live, I will give such a judgement about it that everyone, whether one who reads the Qur'an or one who does not, will act upon it." Then he (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Allah, I make You a witness over the governors of the cities. I sent them only so that they would teach the people their religion and the Sunnah of their Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), do justice among them, distribute their fay' (spoils gained without fighting) among them, and refer to me any matter that is difficult for them." Then he said: "O people! You eat two plants which I consider nothing but foul (disliked because of their smell), namely these onions and garlic. I have seen the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), when he (peace and blessings be upon him) noticed their smell on a man in the mosque, give an order concerning him, and he would be taken out of the mosque to al-Baqi'. So whoever wishes to eat them, let him cook them and kill their smell."
