عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ
أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ :
" رَأَيْتُ فِيمَا يَرَى النَّائِمُ كَأَنِّي أَنْزِعُ أَرْضًا ، وَرَدَتْ عَلَيَّ وَغَنَمٌ سُودٌ وَغَنَمٌ عُفْرٌ ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَنَزَعَ ذَنُوبًا أَوْ ذَنُوبَيْنِ وَفِيهِمَا ضَعْفٌ ، وَاللَّهُ يَغْفِرُ لَهُ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ عُمَرُ فَنَزَعَ فَاسْتَحَالَتْ غَرْبًا فَمَلَأَ الْحَوْضَ وَأَرْوَى الْوَارِدَةَ ، فَلَمْ أَرَ عَبْقَرِيًّا أَحْسَنَ نَزْعًا مِنْ عُمَرَ ، فَأَوَّلْتُ أَنَّ السُّودَ الْعَرَبُ ، وَأَنَّ الْعُفْرَ الْعَجَمُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Tufail (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I saw in a dream that I was in a region and some black and some white goats came to me. After a little while, Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) came and drew one or two buckets, in which there was some weakness—may Allah forgive him. Then Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) came, and the bucket became strong in his hand, and he filled the reservoir and gave water to those who came. I have not seen any strong man draw water better than Umar. And I interpreted this dream as follows: the black goats refer to the Arabs, and the white goats refer to the non-Arabs.
