(حديث موقوف) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْد اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا
سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْهَرَوِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا
يُونُسُ بْنُ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ ، عَنْ
عَوْنِ بْنِ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ عِنْدَ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، وَهُوَ مُسَجًّى ثَوْبِهِ ، قَدْ قَضَى نَحْبَهُ ، فَجَاءَ
عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَكَشَفَ الثَّوْبَ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ ، ثُمّ قَالَ : " رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكَ يا أَبَا حَفْصٍ ، فَوَاللَّهِ مَا بَقِيَ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَحَدٌ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَلْقَى اللَّهَ تَعَالَى بِصَحِيفَتِهِ مِنْكَ ، .
Abu Juhaifah (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I was near the funeral of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), his face was covered with a cloth. In the meantime, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) arrived, removed the cloth from his face and said: O Abu Hafs! May Allah's mercy descend upon you. After the record of deeds of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), there is no one among all of Allah's creation whose record of deeds I would love to meet Allah with, except yours.
