مُسْنَدُ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ .
وَبِالْإِسْنَادِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى الْمَوْصِلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا عِنْدَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، بِالْمَدِينَةِ ، فَتَرَاءَيْنَا الْهِلَالَ ، وَكُنْتُ رَجُلًا حَدِيدَ الْبَصَرِ ، فَرَأَيْتُهُ وَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ رَآهُ غَيْرِي ، قَالَ : فَجَعَلْتُ أَقُولُ لِعُمَرَ : أَمَا تَرَاهُ ؟ فَجَعَلَ لَا يَرَاهُ ، قَالَ : يَقُولُ عُمَرُ : سَأَرَاهُ وَأَنَا مُسْتَلْقٍ عَلَى فِرَاشِي ، ثُمَّ أَنْشَأَ يُحَدِّثُنَا عَنْ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ ، قَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُرِينَا مَصَارِعَ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ بِالْأَمْسِ ، قَالَ : يَقُولُ : هَذَا مَصْرَعُ فُلَانٍ غَدًا إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : فَوَالَّذِي بَعَثَهُ بِالْحَقِّ مَا أَخْطَؤُوا الْحُدُودَ الَّتِي حَدَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : فَجُعِلُوا فِي بِئْرٍ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ ، فَانْطَلَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ : يَا فُلَانُ بْنَ فُلَانٍ ، وَيَا فُلَانُ بْنَ فُلَانٍ ، هَلْ وَجَدْتُمْ مَا وَعَدَكُمُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ حَقًّا ؟ فَإِنِّي قَدْ وَجَدْتُ مَا وَعَدَنِي اللهُ حَقًّا ، قَالَ عُمَرُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، تُكَلِّمُ أَجْسَادًا لَا أَرْوَاحَ فِيهَا ؟ فَقَالَ : مَا أَنْتُمْ بِأَسْمَعَ لِمَا أَقُولُ مِنْهُمْ ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ يَرُدُّوا عَلَيَّ شَيْئًا .
وَبِالْإِسْنَادِ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى الْمَوْصِلِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا عِنْدَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، بِالْمَدِينَةِ ، فَتَرَاءَيْنَا الْهِلَالَ ، وَكُنْتُ رَجُلًا حَدِيدَ الْبَصَرِ ، فَرَأَيْتُهُ وَلَيْسَ أَحَدٌ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّهُ رَآهُ غَيْرِي ، قَالَ : فَجَعَلْتُ أَقُولُ لِعُمَرَ : أَمَا تَرَاهُ ؟ فَجَعَلَ لَا يَرَاهُ ، قَالَ : يَقُولُ عُمَرُ : سَأَرَاهُ وَأَنَا مُسْتَلْقٍ عَلَى فِرَاشِي ، ثُمَّ أَنْشَأَ يُحَدِّثُنَا عَنْ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ ، قَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يُرِينَا مَصَارِعَ أَهْلِ بَدْرٍ بِالْأَمْسِ ، قَالَ : يَقُولُ : هَذَا مَصْرَعُ فُلَانٍ غَدًا إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : فَوَالَّذِي بَعَثَهُ بِالْحَقِّ مَا أَخْطَؤُوا الْحُدُودَ الَّتِي حَدَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : فَجُعِلُوا فِي بِئْرٍ بَعْضُهُمْ عَلَى بَعْضٍ ، فَانْطَلَقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى انْتَهَى إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ : يَا فُلَانُ بْنَ فُلَانٍ ، وَيَا فُلَانُ بْنَ فُلَانٍ ، هَلْ وَجَدْتُمْ مَا وَعَدَكُمُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ حَقًّا ؟ فَإِنِّي قَدْ وَجَدْتُ مَا وَعَدَنِي اللهُ حَقًّا ، قَالَ عُمَرُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، تُكَلِّمُ أَجْسَادًا لَا أَرْوَاحَ فِيهَا ؟ فَقَالَ : مَا أَنْتُمْ بِأَسْمَعَ لِمَا أَقُولُ مِنْهُمْ ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُمْ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ أَنْ يَرُدُّوا عَلَيَّ شَيْئًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: We were with Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) in Madinah when we looked for the new moon. Since I was a man of sharp sight, I saw it, but no one other than me claimed to have seen it. I began to say to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) again and again: "Do you not see it?" But he could not see it. Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Soon, when I lie down on my bed, I will see it." Then he began to tell us about the people of Badr and said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was showing us, a day before the battle, the places where the polytheists of Makkah would fall. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: 'This will be the place where so-and-so falls tomorrow, if Allah wills.'" Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "By the One who sent him (peace and blessings be upon him) with the truth, not one of them strayed in the slightest from the limits that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had marked. Then they were thrown into a well, one on top of another. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went towards them until he stood by them and called out: 'O so-and-so son of so-and-so, and O so-and-so son of so-and-so, have you found true what Allah and His Messenger promised you? For I have indeed found true what my Lord promised me.' Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), are you speaking to bodies that have no souls in them? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'You do not hear what I am saying any better than they do, except that they have no power to give me any reply.'"
حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الْمَلِكِ بْنَ عُمَيْرٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ السُّوَائِيِّ ، فَقَالَ : خَطَبَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ بِالْجَابِيَةِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، قَامَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَقَامِي فِيكُمُ الْيَوْمَ ، قَالَ : أَحْسِنُوا إِلَى أَصْحَابِي ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ، ثُمَّ يَفْشُو الْكَذِبُ حَتَّى يَشْهَدَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى الشَّهَادَةِ لَا يُسْأَلُهَا ، وَيَحْلِفُ عَلَى الْيَمِينِ لَا يُسْأَلُهَا ، فَمَنْ أَرَادَ بُحْبُوحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَلْزَمِ الْجَمَاعَةَ ، فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مَعَ الْوَاحِدِ ، وَهُوَ مِنَ الِاثْنَيْنِ أَبْعَدُ ، فَلَا يَخْلُوَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ بِامْرَأَةٍ ، فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ ثَالِثُهُمَا ، مَنْ سَرَّتْهُ حَسَنَتُهُ وَسَاءَتْهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ فَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) addressed us at al-Jabiyah and said: "O people, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood among us just as I stand among you today, and then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Treat my Companions well, then those who come after them. Then (after that) lying will spread so much that a man will give testimony without being asked to testify, and will swear an oath without being asked to swear. So whoever wants the middle and best place of Paradise, let him hold fast to the Jama'ah (the community of the Muslims), for Satan is with the one who is alone, and he is farther from two (than from one). And let no man ever be alone with a woman, for (in that case) Satan is the third of them. Whoever is gladdened by his good deed and saddened by his evil deed is a (true) believer.'"
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ الْبَصْرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ ، قَالَ : خَطَبَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ، بِالْجَابِيَةِ ، فَقَالَ : قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَقَامِي فِيكُمُ الْيَوْمَ ، فَقَالَ : أَلَا أَحْسِنُوا إِلَى أَصْحَابِي ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ، فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ شَيْبَانَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), addressing us at al-Jabiyah, said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (once) stood among you in exactly the place where I stand today, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Listen! Treat my Companions well, then those who come after them.'" Then the narrator mentioned (the rest of) the text like the hadith of Shayban.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ ، قَالَ : خَطَبَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ النَّاسَ بِالْجَابِيَةِ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَامَ فِي مِثْلِ مَقَامِي هَذَا ، فَقَالَ : أَحْسِنُوا إِلَى أَصْحَابِي ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ، ثُمَّ الَّذِينَ يَلُونَهُمْ ، ثُمَّ يَفْشُو الْكَذِبُ ، حَتَّى يَحْلِفَ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى الْيَمِينِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسْتَحْلَفَ ، وَيَشْهَدَ عَلَى الشَّهَادَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُسْتَشْهَدَ عَلَيْهَا ، فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنَالَ مِنْكُمْ بُحْبُوحَةَ الْجَنَّةِ فَلْيَلْزَمِ الْجَمَاعَةَ ، فَإِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ مَعَ الْوَاحِدِ ، وَهُوَ مِنَ الِاثْنَيْنِ أَبْعَدُ ، أَلَا لَا يَخْلُوَنَّ رَجُلٌ بِامْرَأَةٍ ، فَإِنَّ ثَالِثُهُمَا الشَّيْطَانَ ، أَلَا وَمَنْ كَانَ مِنْكُمْ تَسُوؤُهُ سَيِّئَتُهُ وَتَسُرُّهُ حَسَنَتُهُ فَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), addressing the people at al-Jabiyah, said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (once) stood just as I am standing now and said: "Treat my Companions well, then those who come after them, then those who come after them. After that lying will spread so much that a man will swear an oath before he is asked to swear, and give testimony before he is called to testify. So whoever of you wishes to attain the middle and best part of Paradise, let him hold fast to the Jama'ah, for Satan is with the one, and he is farther from two. Beware! Let no man ever be alone with a non-mahram woman, for Satan is the third of them. Listen! Whoever of you is gladdened by his good deed and saddened by his evil deed, he is the (complete) believer."
حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو هِلَالٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا غَيْلَانُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ الزِّمَّانِيُّ .
عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْ أَتَى عَلَى رَجُلٍ فَقِيلَ : مَا أَفْطَرَ مُذْ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، قَالَ : لَا صَامَ وَلَا أَفْطَرَ - أَوْ : مَا صَامَ وَمَا أَفْطَرَ ، شَكَّ غَيْلَانُ - فَلَمَّا رَأَى عُمَرُ غَضَبَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، صَوْمُ يَوْمَيْنِ وَإِفْطَارُ يَوْمٍ ؟ قَالَ : وَيُطِيقُ ذَاكَ أَحَدٌ ؟ قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، صَوْمُ يَوْمٍ وَإِفْطَارُ يَوْمٍ ؟ قَالَ : ذَاكَ صَوْمُ أَخِي دَاوُدَ ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَوْمُ يَوْمٍ وَإِفْطَارُ يَوْمَيْنِ ؟ قَالَ : وَمَنْ يُطِيقُ ذَاكَ ؟ قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، صَوْمُ يَوْمِ الِاثْنَيْنِ ؟ قَالَ : ذَاكَ يَوْمٌ وُلِدْتُ فِيهِ ، وَيَوْمٌ أُنْزِلَ عَلَيَّ النُّبُوَّةُ ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَوْمُ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ وَيَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ ، قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا : يُكَفِّرُ ، وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ : مَا قَبْلَهَا ، أَوْ : مَا بَعْدَهَا ، شَكَّ أَبُو هِلَالٍ .
عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْ أَتَى عَلَى رَجُلٍ فَقِيلَ : مَا أَفْطَرَ مُذْ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، قَالَ : لَا صَامَ وَلَا أَفْطَرَ - أَوْ : مَا صَامَ وَمَا أَفْطَرَ ، شَكَّ غَيْلَانُ - فَلَمَّا رَأَى عُمَرُ غَضَبَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، صَوْمُ يَوْمَيْنِ وَإِفْطَارُ يَوْمٍ ؟ قَالَ : وَيُطِيقُ ذَاكَ أَحَدٌ ؟ قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، صَوْمُ يَوْمٍ وَإِفْطَارُ يَوْمٍ ؟ قَالَ : ذَاكَ صَوْمُ أَخِي دَاوُدَ ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَوْمُ يَوْمٍ وَإِفْطَارُ يَوْمَيْنِ ؟ قَالَ : وَمَنْ يُطِيقُ ذَاكَ ؟ قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، صَوْمُ يَوْمِ الِاثْنَيْنِ ؟ قَالَ : ذَاكَ يَوْمٌ وُلِدْتُ فِيهِ ، وَيَوْمٌ أُنْزِلَ عَلَيَّ النُّبُوَّةُ ، قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَوْمُ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ وَيَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ ، قَالَ أَحَدُهُمَا : يُكَفِّرُ ، وَقَالَ الْآخَرُ : مَا قَبْلَهَا ، أَوْ : مَا بَعْدَهَا ، شَكَّ أَبُو هِلَالٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: We were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when we were told about a man that he had been fasting continuously for such-and-such a length of time and had never broken his fast. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He has neither fasted nor broken his fast," or he said: "He has neither fasted nor gone without fasting" (this is the doubt of the narrator Ghaylan). When Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) saw signs of anger on the blessed face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), what is the ruling on fasting two days and breaking the fast for one day?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Who indeed has the strength for that?" He said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), what do you say about fasting one day and breaking the fast one day?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That is the fasting of my brother Dawud (peace be upon him)." He said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), what do you think of fasting one day and breaking the fast for two days?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "And who has the strength for that?" He said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), what is the ruling on fasting on Monday?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That is the day on which I was born, and on that day prophethood was sent down upon me." He said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), what do you say about fasting on the Day of Arafah and the Day of Ashura?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "One of them becomes an expiation (for sins)," and (about the other) he said: "It is (an expiation for the sins of) the previous year or the coming year." Here the narrator Abu Hilal was in doubt whether he (peace and blessings be upon him) said the words "previous year" or "coming year".
حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي الْفُرَاتِ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ الدِّيلِيِّ ، قَالَ : أَتَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ وَقَدْ وَقَعَ بِهَا مَرَضٌ ، فَهُمْ يَمُوتُونَ مَوْتًا ذَرِيعًا ، فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَى عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، فَمَرَّتْ بِهِ جِنَازَةٌ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَى صَاحِبِهَا خَيْرٌ ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : وَجَبَتْ ، ثُمَّ مَرَّتْ أُخْرَى فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَى صَاحِبِهَا شَرٌّ ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : وَجَبَتْ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو الْأَسْوَدِ : قُلْتُ : مَا وَجَبَتْ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ؟ قَالَ : قُلْتُ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَيُّمَا مُسْلِمٍ شَهِدَ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةٌ بِخَيْرٍ أَدْخَلَهُ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ ، قَالَ : قُلْنَا : وَثَلَاثَةٌ ؟ قَالَ : وَثَلَاثَةٌ ، قُلْنَا : وَاثْنَانِ ؟ قَالَ : وَاثْنَانِ ، ثُمَّ لَمْ نَسْأَلْهُ عَنِ الْوَاحِدِ .
It is narrated from Abu al-Aswad al-Dili (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said: I came to Madinah, and an epidemic had spread there, because of which people were dying very rapidly. I sat in the gathering of Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him). Meanwhile a funeral passed by, and the people praised the deceased with good, and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "It has become due." Then another funeral passed, and the people mentioned evil about him, and at this too Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "It has become due." Abu al-Aswad (may Allah have mercy on him) relates: I said: O Commander of the Believers, what has become due? He said: "I said what the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Any Muslim for whose goodness four people bear witness, Allah Almighty will admit him into Paradise.' We said: And if there are three? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'And (on the witness of) three too.' Then we said: And if there are two? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'And (on the witness of) two too.' After that we did not ask him (peace and blessings be upon him) about a single witness."
حَدَّثَنَا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ، يَقُولُ : يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ ، أَلَا لَا تُخْدَعُوا عَنِ الرَّجْمِ ، أَلَا لَا تُخْدَعُوا عَنِ الرَّجْمِ ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجَمَ ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ رَجَمَ ، وَرَجَمْتُ ، وَإِنَّهُ يَكُونُ قَوْمٌ يُكَذِّبُونَ بِالرَّجْمِ وَبِالشَّفَاعَةِ وَبِالدَّجَّالِ ، وَبِقَوْمٍ يَخْرُجُونَ مِنَ النَّارِ بَعْدَمَا مَحَشَتْهُمْ . أَوِ : امْتُحِشُوا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: I heard Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) say: "O people! Beware, do not be deceived regarding stoning (rajm, the Shari'ah ruling of stoning); know well, never be deceived in the matter of stoning, for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) carried out the punishment of stoning, Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) carried out stoning, and I too have carried out stoning. And the truth is that soon there will arise people who will deny stoning, the intercession, the Dajjal, and the bringing out (from Hell) of people whom the Fire will have burnt to charcoal, or who will have been badly scorched in it."
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ ، وَزَحْمَوَيْهِ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورٌ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْعَالِيَةِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، مِنْهُمْ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ، وَكَانَ عُمَرُ مِنْ أَحَبِّهِمْ إِلَيَّ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ بَعْدَ الْفَجْرِ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ ، وَبَعْدَ الْعَصْرِ حَتَّى تَغْرُبَ الشَّمْسُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: Several Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (may Allah be pleased with them) told me this, among them Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was the most beloved of them all to me: that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade praying after the Fajr prayer until the sun has fully risen, and after the Asr prayer until the sun has completely set.
حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُصْعَبٍ الزُّبَيْرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ أَنَسٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ كَانَ يُسَايِرُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِهِ ، فَسَأَلَهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ ، ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ ، ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : فَقُلْتُ : ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ عُمَرُ ، سَأَلْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثًا ، كُلَّ ذَلِكَ لَا يُجِيبُكَ ، فَحَرَّكْتُ بَعِيرِي وَتَقَدَّمْتُ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ النَّاسِ ، فَلَمْ أَنْشَبْ أَنْ سَمِعْتُ صَارِخًا يُنَادِي ، فَأَتَيْتُ ، قُلْتُ : لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ نَزَلَ فِيَّ قُرْآنٌ ، فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : نَزَلَتْ عَلَيَّ اللَّيْلَةَ سُورَةٌ هِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِمَّا طَلَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ الشَّمْسُ ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ : إِنَّا فَتَحْنَا لَكَ فَتْحًا مُبِينًا لِيَغْفِرَ لَكَ اللهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِكَ وَمَا تَأَخَّرَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that he was travelling with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on a journey. He asked him (peace and blessings be upon him) about some matter, but he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him no answer. He asked again, and still he (peace and blessings be upon him) did not answer. Then he asked a third time, but he (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent. At this Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said (reproaching himself): "O Umar, may your mother be bereaved of you! You asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) three times, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave you no answer." He relates: Then I spurred my camel on and went ahead of the people, and I feared that some verse of the Qur'an might be revealed about me (because of this persistence). Only a little while had passed when I heard a caller calling out. I presented myself before the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said that I feared that Qur'an might have been revealed concerning me. Then I greeted him (peace and blessings be upon him) with salam, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Tonight a surah has been revealed to me that is more beloved to me than everything on which the sun rises." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) recited these verses: "Indeed, We have granted you a clear victory, so that Allah may forgive you your former and later shortcomings."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Exchanging gold for silver is usury (riba) unless it is hand to hand (on the spot), and exchanging barley for barley is usury unless the transaction is hand to hand." And in the narration of Ishaq (may Allah have mercy on him) there are also these words: "And exchanging dates for dates is usury unless the transaction is hand to hand." It is also mentioned in it that Malik bin Aws (may Allah have mercy on him) heard Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) report that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had said (likewise).
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، سَمِعَ أَبَا عُبَيْدٍ مَوْلَى الزُّهْرِيِّينَ ، قَالَ :
شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، فَبَدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ ، وَقَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْ صِيَامِ هَذَيْنِ الْيَوْمَيْنِ ، أَمَّا يَوْمُ الْفِطْرِ فَفِطْرُكُمْ مِنْ صِيَامِكُمْ ، وَأَمَّا يَوْمُ الْأَضْحَى ، فَكُلُوا مِنْ لَحْمِ نُسُكِكُمْ ، لَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ هَذَا .
شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، فَبَدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ ، وَقَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْ صِيَامِ هَذَيْنِ الْيَوْمَيْنِ ، أَمَّا يَوْمُ الْفِطْرِ فَفِطْرُكُمْ مِنْ صِيَامِكُمْ ، وَأَمَّا يَوْمُ الْأَضْحَى ، فَكُلُوا مِنْ لَحْمِ نُسُكِكُمْ ، لَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ هَذَا .
It is narrated from Abu Ubayd (may Allah have mercy on him) (the freed slave of Banu Zuhrah) that he said: I attended the Eid prayer with Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him). He (may Allah be pleased with him) began with the prayer before the sermon and said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade fasting on these two days: as for the day of Eid al-Fitr, it is the day on which you break your fasts, and as for the day of Eid al-Adha, eat (on it) the meat of your sacrifices. Nothing more than this was mentioned in this narration.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَ : لَمَّا زَالَتِ الشَّمْسُ صَعِدَ عُمَرُ الْمِنْبَرَ ، وَأَذَّنَ الْمُؤَذِّنُونَ ، فَخَطَبَ ، فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ، وَقَالَ فِي خُطْبَتِهِ : الرَّجْمُ حَقٌّ لِلْمُحْصَنِ إِذَا كَانَتْ بَيِّنَةٌ أَوْ حَمْلٌ أَوِ اعْتِرَافٌ ، وَقَدْ رَجَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَرَجَمْنَا مَعَهُ وَبَعْدَهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when the sun had passed its zenith, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) ascended the pulpit and the muezzins called the adhan. Then he (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered the sermon, in which he praised and glorified Allah, Mighty and Majestic, and during his sermon he said: "Stoning (rajm) is a truth for the married adulterer when there is evidence (of adultery), or a pregnancy becomes apparent, or he himself confesses. And indeed the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) carried out the punishment of stoning, and we stoned with him (peace and blessings be upon him) and after him (peace and blessings be upon him) as well."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ ، قَالَ : شَهِدْتُ الْعِيدَ مَعَ عُمَرَ ، فَبَدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْ صِيَامِ هَذَيْنِ الْيَوْمَيْنِ : أَمَّا يَوْمُ الْأَضْحَى ، فَتَأْكُلُونَ مِنْ نُسُكِكُمْ ، وَأَمَّا يَوْمُ الْفِطْرِ فَفِطْرُكُمْ مِنْ صِيَامِكُمْ ، قَالَ : وَشَهِدْتُهُ مَعَ عُثْمَانَ ، فَبَدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ ، فَوَافَقَ ذَاكَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ هَذَا يَوْمٌ يَجْتَمِعُ فِيهِ عِيدَانِ ، مَنْ كَانَ هَا هُنَا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَوَالِي فَقَدْ أَذِنَّا لَهُ ، فَإِنْ شَاءَ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ فَلْيَرْجِعْ ، وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَمْكُثَ فَلْيَمْكُثْ . ثُمَّ شَهِدْتُهَا مَعَ عَلِيٍّ ، فَبَدَأَ بِالصَّلَاةِ قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ ، وَقَالَ : لَا يَأْكُلْ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنْ نُسُكِهِ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثٍ .
It is narrated from Abu Ubayd (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said: I attended the Eid with Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him). He led the prayer before the sermon, then said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade fasting on these two days: the day of Eid al-Adha, so that you may eat from your sacrifices, and the day of Eid al-Fitr, because it is the day you break (end) your fasting." He said: Then I attended the Eid with Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him). He too led the prayer before the sermon, and it happened to be a Friday, so he said: "This is a day in which two Eids have come together for you. So whoever of the people of al-Awali (the outskirts of Madinah) is present here, we have given him permission (to go back); if he wishes to return, let him go, and whoever wishes to stay, let him stay." Then I attended the Eid with Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). He too led the prayer before the sermon and said: "None of you should eat the meat of his sacrifice for more than three days."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، وَعُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : لَا تُطْرُونِي كَمَا أَطْرَتِ النَّصَارَى عِيسَى ابْنَ مَرْيَمَ ، وَلَكِنْ قُولُوا : عَبْدُ اللهِ وَرَسُولُهُ .
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians exaggerated and went to extremes in praising Isa bin Maryam (peace be upon him); rather say: 'The slave of Allah and His Messenger.'"

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) related that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not prevent the female slaves of Allah from the mosques of Allah."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I was sitting in the gathering of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Tell me, who are the most excellent of the people of faith in terms of faith?" The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! The angels. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They are indeed so, and this rank befits them; and what could prevent them from believing when Allah Almighty has placed them in the special station in which He has placed them? Rather, (name) someone other than them." The Companions said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! The prophets, whom Allah Almighty honoured with His message and with prophethood. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They are indeed so, and this rank is their right; and what could hinder them when Allah Almighty has placed them in that lofty rank? Rather, someone other than them." The Companions said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! The martyrs, who attained martyrdom against the enemies. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They too are so, and this rank is their right; and what could prevent them when Allah Almighty has honoured them with martyrdom alongside the prophets? Rather, someone other than them." The Companions said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Then who are they? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "People who are still in the loins of men and will come after me. They will believe in me though they have not seen me, and they will affirm me though they have not beheld me. They will find written pages and act upon what is written in them. These are the most excellent of all the people of faith in terms of faith."

عَنْ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : « أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخِيَارِ أَئِمَّتِكُمْ مِنْ شِرَارِهِمُ ؟ الَّذِينَ تُحِبُّونَهُمْ وَيُحِبُّونَكُمْ ، وَيَدْعُونَ لَكُمْ وَتَدْعُونَ لَهُمْ ، وَشِرَارُ أَئِمَّتِكُمُ الَّذِينَ تُبْغِضُونَهُمْ وَيُبْغِضُونَكُمْ ، وَتَلْعَنُونَهُمْ وَيَلْعَنُونَكُمْ » .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shall I not inform you of the best and the worst of your rulers? (The best are those) whom you love and who love you, who pray for you and for whom you pray; while the worst of your rulers are those whom you hate and who hate you, whom you curse and who curse you."
حَدَّثَنَا مُصْعَبٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ : فَرَضَ عُمَرُ لِأُسَامَةَ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا فَرَضَ لِي ، فَقُلْتُ : إِنَّمَا هِجْرَتِي وَهِجْرَةُ أُسَامَةَ وَاحِدَةٌ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ أَبَاهُ كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ أَبِيكَ ، وَإِنَّهُ كَانَ أَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْكَ ، وَإِنَّمَا هَاجَرَ بِكَ أَبَوَاكَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) fixed a larger stipend for Sayyiduna Usamah (may Allah be pleased with him) than for me. So I said: My emigration and Usamah's emigration are the same. He said: "Indeed, his father was more beloved to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) than your father, and he himself was more beloved to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) than you; moreover, it was your parents who brought you with them in emigration."
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ حُنَيْنٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ آلَى مِنْ نِسَائِهِ شَهْرًا ، فَلَمَّا مَضَتْ تِسْعٌ وَعِشْرُونَ نَزَلَ إِلَيْهِنَّ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that "the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took an oath to stay away from his pure wives for a month; then, when twenty-nine days had passed, he (peace and blessings be upon him) came to them."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ أَبِي زُمَيْلٍ الْحَنَفِيِّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، قَالَ: لَمَّا اعْتَزَلَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم نِسَاءَهُ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَإِذَا النَّاسُ يَنْكُتُونَ بِالْحَصَى، وَيَقُولُونَ: طَلَّقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نِسَاءَهُ، وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُؤْمَرَ بِالْحِجَابِ، قَالَ عُمَرُ: فَقُلْتُ: لَأَعْلَمَنَّ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ. قَالَ: فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقُلْتُ: يَا بِنْتَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، أَقَدْ بَلَغَ مِنْ شَأْنِكِ أَنْ تُؤْذِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم؟ قَالَتْ: مَا لِي وَلَكَ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ؟ عَلَيْكَ بِعَيْبَتِكَ، قَالَ: فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى حَفْصَةَ ابْنَةِ عُمَرَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا حَفْصَةُ، أَقَدْ بَلَغَ مِنْ شَأْنِكِ أَنْ تُؤْذِي رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَا يُحِبُّكِ، وَلَوْلَا أَنَا لَطَلَّقَكِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، قَالَ: فَبَكَتْ أَشَدَّ الْبُكَاءِ، فَقُلْتُ لَهَا: أَيْنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَتْ: هُوَ فِي خِزَانَتِهِ فِي الْمَشْرُبَةِ. فَدَخَلْتُ إِذَا أَنَا بِرَبَاحٍ غُلَامِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَاعِدًا عَلَى أُسْكُفَّةِ الْمَشْرُبَةِ، مُدَلٍّ رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى نَقِيرٍ مِنْ خَشَبٍ، وَهُوَ جِذْعٌ يَرْقَى عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَيَنْحَدِرُ، فَنَادَيْتُهُ ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَبَاحُ، اسْتَأْذِنْ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَنَظَرَ رَبَاحٌ إِلَى الْغُرْفَةِ ثُمَّ نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَبَاحُ، اسْتَأْذِنْ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَنَظَرَ رَبَاحٌ إِلَى الْغُرْفَةِ ثُمَّ نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَبَاحُ، اسْتَأْذِنْ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَنَظَرَ إِلَى الْغُرْفَةِ ثُمَّ نَظَرَ إِلَيَّ فَلَمْ يَقُلْ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ رَفَعْتُ صَوْتِي، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَبَاحُ، اسْتَأْذِنْ لِي عِنْدَكَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ، فَإِنِّي أَظُنُّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ظَنَّ أَنِّي جِئْتُ مِنْ أَجْلِ حَفْصَةَ، وَاللَّهِ لَئِنْ أَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِضَرْبِ عُنُقِهَا لَأَضْرِبَنَّ عُنُقَهَا. وَرَفَعْتُ صَوْتِي، فَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيَّ أَنِ ائْذَنْهُ. فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَهُوَ مُضْطَجِعٌ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ، فَجَلَسْتُ، فَإِذَا عَلَيْهِ إِزَارُهُ وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ غَيْرُهُ، فَإِذَا الْحَصِيرُ قَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِهِ، فَنَظَرْتُ بِبَصَرِي فِي خِزَانَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَإِذَا أَنَا بِقَبْضَةٍ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ نَحْوَ الصَّاعِ، وَمِثْلِهَا قَرَظًا فِي نَاحِيَةِ الْغُرْفَةِ، وَإِذَا أَفِيقٌ مُعَلَّقٌ. قَالَ: فَابْتَدَرَتْ عَيْنَايَ، قَالَ: «مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ؟». فَقُلْتُ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ، وَمَا لِي لَا أَبْكِي وَهَذَا الْحَصِيرُ قَدْ أَثَّرَ فِي جَنْبِكَ؟ وَهَذِهِ خِزَانَتُكَ لَا أَرَى فِيهَا إِلَّا مَا أَرَى؟ وَذَاكَ قَيْصَرُ وَكِسْرَى فِي الثِّمَارِ وَالْأَنْهَارِ وَأَنْتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَصَفْوَتُهُ، وَهَذِهِ خِزَانَتُكَ؟ قَالَ: «يَا ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، أَلَا تَرْضَى أَنْ تَكُونَ لَنَا الْآخِرَةُ وَلَهُمُ الدُّنْيَا؟» قُلْتُ: بَلَى. قَالَ: وَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ، حِينَ دَخَلْتُ ، وَأَنَا أَرَى فِي وَجْهِهِ الْغَضَبَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، مَا يَشُقُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْ شَأْنِ النِّسَاءِ؟ فَإِنْ كُنْتَ طَلَّقْتَهُنَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَكَ وَمَلَائِكَتَهُ، وَجِبْرِيلَ، وَمِيكَائِيلَ، وَأَنَا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ مَعَكَ، وَقَلَّمَا تَكَلَّمْتُ، وَأَحْمَدُ اللَّهَ، بِكَلَامٍ إِلَّا رَجَوْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ اللَّهُ يُصَدِّقُ قَوْلِيَ الَّذِي أَقُولُ، قَالَ: وَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ، آيَةُ التَّخْيِيرِ {عَسَى رَبُّهُ إِنْ طَلَّقَكُنَّ أَنْ يُبْدِلَهُ أَزْوَاجًا خَيْرًا مِنْكُنَّ} [التحريم: 5]، {وَإِنْ تَظَاهَرَا عَلَيْهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ مَوْلَاهُ وَجِبْرِيلُ وَصَالِحُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَالْمَلَائِكَةُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ظَهِيرٌ} [التحريم: 4] وَكَانَتْ عَائِشَةُ بِنْتُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَحَفْصَةُ تَظَاهَرَانِ عَلَى سَائِرِ نِسَاءِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَطَلَّقْتَهُنَّ؟ قَالَ: «لَا». فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنِّي دَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ وَالْمُسْلِمُونَ يَنْكُتُونَ بِالْحَصَاةِ وَيَقُولُونَ: طَلَّقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نِسَاءَهُ، فَانْزِلْ فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّكَ لَمْ تُطَلِّقْهُنَّ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ، إِنْ شِئْتَ». فَلَمْ أَزَلْ أُحَدِّثُهُ حَتَّى تَحَسَّرَ الْغَضَبُ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ وَحَتَّى كَشَرَ فَضَحِكَ، وَكَانَ مِنْ أَحْسَنِ النَّاسِ ثَغْرًا، ثُمَّ نَزَلَ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، فَنَزَلْتُ أَتَشَبَّثُ بِالْجِذْعِ، وَنَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَأَنَّمَا يَمْشِي عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مَا يَمَسُّهُ بِيَدِهِ. فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّمَا كُنْتَ فِي الْغُرْفَةِ تِسْعَةً وَعِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا؟ قَالَ: «إِنَّ الشَّهْرَ يَكُونُ تِسْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ». فَقُمْتُ عَلَى بَابِ الْمَسْجِدِ، فَنَادَيْتُ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِي: لَمْ يُطَلِّقْ نِسَاءَهُ، قَالَ : وَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {وَإِذَا جَاءَهُمْ أَمْرٌ مِنَ الْأَمِنِ أَوِ الْخَوْفِ أَذَاعُوا بِهِ وَلَوْ رَدُّوهُ إِلَى الرَّسُولِ وَإِلَى أُولِي الْأَمْرِ مِنْهُمْ لَعَلِمَهُ الَّذِينَ يَسْتَنْبِطُونَهُ مِنْهُمْ} [النساء: 83] فَكُنْتُ أَنَا الَّذِي اسْتَنْبَطْتُ ذَاكَ الْأَمْرَ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ آيَةَ التَّخْيِيرِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) withdrew from his pure wives, I entered the mosque and found the people fiddling with pebbles and saying that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had divorced his wives; and this was before the commands of the veil (hijab) were revealed. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I thought, today I will certainly find out the truth of this matter. So I went to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) and said: "O daughter of Abu Bakr! Has your standing reached the point that you have begun to hurt the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" She replied: "O Ibn al-Khattab! What have I to do with you? Mind your own affairs." Then I went to my daughter, Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her), and said: "O Hafsah! Has your standing grown to the point that you have begun to hurt the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? By Allah! You know that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) does not love you, and were it not for me, he would have divorced you." Hearing this, she wept bitterly. I asked her where the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was. She said that he was in his chamber in the upper room. I went there and saw that the servant of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), Sayyiduna Rabah (may Allah be pleased with him), was sitting at the step of the upper room, dangling his feet over the wooden trunk by which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to climb up and come down. I called out: "O Rabah! Ask permission for me from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to come in." Rabah looked towards the room, then looked at me and said nothing. I said the same a second and a third time, but each time he looked and remained silent. Then I raised my voice and said: "O Rabah! Ask permission for me from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I think the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) perhaps thinks that I have come for the sake of Hafsah. By Allah! If the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) were to order me to strike her neck, I would certainly strike her neck." Hearing my raised voice, he signalled to me to come in. I came into the presence of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) was lying on a mat. I sat down. He (peace and blessings be upon him) was wearing only a waist-wrapper, and the marks of the mat were visible on his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed side. I cast my eyes around a corner of the room, and there was only about a sa' of barley, and a similar amount of acacia leaves, and a raw hide hanging. Seeing this, my eyes filled with tears. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "O Ibn al-Khattab! What has made you weep?" I said: "O Prophet of Allah! Why should I not weep? This mat has left marks on your (peace and blessings be upon him) side, and the state of your storeroom is that there is nothing in it except what I see, while Caesar and Chosroes live amid an abundance of fruits and rivers, and you, the Messenger of Allah and His chosen one, are in this hardship?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Ibn al-Khattab! Are you not pleased that the Hereafter should be for us and only this world for them?" I said: "Certainly (indeed I am pleased)." And when I had entered upon him (peace and blessings be upon him), there were signs of anger on his blessed face. I said: "O Messenger of Allah! What has troubled you in the matter of the wives? If you have divorced them, then surely Allah is with you, and His angels, Jibril, Mika'il, I, Abu Bakr and all the believers are with you." And whatever I said, praising Allah, I hoped that Allah Almighty would confirm my words. So these verses of the choice (takhyir) were revealed: "It may be that if he divorces you, his Lord will give him in exchange wives better than you," and "And if you support one another against him, then indeed Allah is his Protector, and Jibril and the righteous believers, and after that the angels are his helpers." And Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) and Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her) used to support each other against the other pure wives. I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Have you divorced them?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No." I said: "O Messenger of Allah! When I entered the mosque, the Muslims were fiddling with pebbles and saying that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had divorced his wives. Will you come down and inform them that you have not divorced them?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, if you wish." Then I kept talking with him (peace and blessings be upon him) until the anger left his face and he (peace and blessings be upon him) smiled so broadly that his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed teeth showed, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) had the most beautiful smile of all people. Then the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came down. I came down holding on to the wooden trunk, while the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came down as though he were walking on the ground, without touching anything with his hand for support. I said: "O Messenger of Allah! You stayed in this upper room for only twenty-nine days?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A month can also be of twenty-nine days." Then I stood at the door of the mosque and called out at the top of my voice that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had not divorced his wives. And on this occasion this verse was revealed: "And when there comes to them some news of security or fear, they spread it about; whereas had they referred it to the Messenger and to those in authority among them, those among them who can get to the bottom of it would have known it." So I was the one who got to the bottom of that matter, and Allah Almighty revealed the verses of the choice (takhyir).
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : الْتَمِسُوا لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ فِي الْعَشْرِ الْأَوَاخِرِ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ .
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Seek the Night of Decree (Laylat al-Qadr) in the last ten days of the blessed month of Ramadan."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that "he found a horse which he had (earlier) given in the path of Allah (for jihad), and he then intended to buy it back. So he asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about it, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade him from buying it."
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ قُلْتَ لِي : إِنَّ خَيْرًا لَكَ أَنْ لَا تَسْأَلَ أَحَدًا مِنَ النَّاسِ شَيْئًا ؟ قَالَ : إِنَّمَا ذَاكَ أَنْ تَسْأَلَ ، وَمَا آتَاكَ اللهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ مَسْأَلَةٍ فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ رِزْقٌ رَزَقَكَهُ اللهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I said: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Did you (peace and blessings be upon him) not say to me: 'It is better for you not to ask anyone among the people for anything'?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That (prohibition) is only in the case where you yourself ask; and whatever Allah Almighty gives you without your asking, that is in fact provision which Allah Almighty has bestowed upon you."
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، عَنْ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُمْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : اطْلُبُوهَا فِي الْعَشْرِ الْأَوَاخِرِ وِتْرًا .
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "You know well that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Seek it (Laylat al-Qadr) in the odd nights of the last ten days (of Ramadan).'"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: لَقِيتُ عُمَرَ، وَهُوَ بِالْمَوْسِمِ، فَنَادَيْتُهُ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْفُسْطَاطِ أَلَا إِنِّي فُلَانٌ ابْنُ فُلَانٍ الْجَرْمِيُّ، وَإِنَّ ابْنَ أُخْتٍ لَنَا، لَهُ أَخٌ عَانٍ فِي بَنِي فُلَانٍ، وَقَدْ عَرَضْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَرِيضَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَبَى، قَالَ: فَرَفَعَ عُمَرُ جَانِبَ الْفُسْطَاطِ، فَقَالَ: أَتَعْرِفُ صَاحِبَكَ؟ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، هُوَ ذَاكَ. قَالَ: انْطَلَقْنَا بِهِ حَتَّى يُنَفِّذَ لَكُمَا قَضِيَّةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: وَكُنَّا نَتَحَدَّثُ أَنَّ الْقَضِيَّةَ أَرْبَعٌ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ
Kulayb (may Allah have mercy on him) relates concerning Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): I met Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) during the days of Hajj, and I called out to him from behind the tent, saying that I am so-and-so son of so-and-so al-Jarmi, and that the brother of a nephew of ours (a sister's son) is a captive with Banu so-and-so. We offered them the obligation fixed by the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (blood-money or ransom), but they refused to accept it. The narrator says: Then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) lifted one side of the tent and asked: "Do you recognise this man of yours?" I said: Yes, this is the man. Then he (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "We will take him along so that he may carry out the judgement of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for the two of you." The narrator says: We used to talk about how that (Prophetic) judgement consisted of four camels.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ ، حَدَّثَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْعُمَرِيُّ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي سَالِمٌ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، أَنَّ سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ سَأَلَ عُمَرَ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْمَسْحِ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْخُفَّيْنِ إِذَا لَبِسَهُمَا وَهُمَا طَاهِرَتَانِ .
Salim (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from his father (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) asked Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) about wiping over leather socks (khuffs), and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) command wiping over the back (upper surface) of the leather socks when they have been put on in a state of purity."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her) while she was weeping. He asked her: "What has made you weep? Perhaps the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has divorced you? He had indeed divorced you once before, and then he (peace and blessings be upon him) took you back only for my sake. By Allah! If he has divorced you again, I will never speak to you."

The narrator says: He (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed over them and supplicated for them abundantly. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about them, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "These are the people of the graveyard of the martyrs of Asqalan, who will be conducted to Paradise (with the greatest honour and dignity) just as a bride is conducted to her husband."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that there was a man whose nickname was "Himar" (donkey). He used to present skins of ghee and skins of honey to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) as gifts. Then, when the real owner of these goods (the trader) came to demand the price from him, he would bring him to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and say: "O Messenger of Allah! Give this man the price of his goods." At this the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would only smile and give an order concerning him, and the price would be paid to him. One day he was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) having drunk wine, and a man said: "O Allah, curse him! How often he is brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (for this offence)!" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not curse him, for he loves Allah and His Messenger."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: I asked Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him): O Commander of the Believers! Who are the two women who supported each other against the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: "They are Sayyidah Aishah and Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with them both)."
