(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْقُدُّوسِ بْنُ الْحَجَّاجِ ، حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الْمُخَارِقِ زُهَيْرُ بْنُ سَالِمٍ : أَنَّ عُمَيْرَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيَّ كَانَ وَلَّاهُ عُمَرُ حِمْصَ . . . فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ ، قَالَ عُمَرُ يَعْنِي لِكَعْبٍ : " إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ عَنْ أَمْرٍ فَلَا تَكْتُمْنِي ، قَالَ : وَاللَّهِ لَا أَكْتُمُكَ شَيْئًا أَعْلَمُهُ ، قَالَ : مَا أَخْوَفُ شَيْءٍ تَخَوَّفُهُ عَلَى أُمَّةِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ قَالَ : أَئِمَّةً مُضِلِّينَ ، قَالَ عُمَرُ : صَدَقْتَ ، قَدْ أَسَرَّ ذَلِكَ إِلَيَّ وَأَعْلَمَنِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " .
Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) had appointed Umair bin Saeed as the governor of Homs. On one occasion, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "I am going to ask you a question, do not hide anything from me." He replied: "Whatever I know, I will not hide." He (Umar) asked: "What do you consider to be the most dangerous thing for the Muslim Ummah?" He replied: "Misguiding leaders." Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "You have spoken the truth. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had informed me of this."
