«بينما أنا نائم رأيتني على قليب عليها دلو فنزعت منها ما شاء الله ثم أخذها ابن أبي قحافة فنزع بها ذنوبا أو ذنوبين وفي نزعه ضعف والله يغفر له ضعفه ثم استحالت غربا فأخذها ابن الخطاب فلم أر عبقريا من الناس ينزع نزع عمر ثم ضرب الناس بعطن»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"I was asleep and saw myself at a well on which there was a bucket. I drew from it as much water as Allah willed. Then Ibn Abi Quhafah (Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him) took it and drew one or two bucketfuls of water, and there was some weakness in his drawing; may Allah forgive him that weakness. Then the bucket became large, and Ibn al-Khattab (Umar, may Allah be pleased with him) took hold of it. I did not see anyone among the people drawing water as Umar did, until the people (that is, the camels) drank their fill and settled down in their resting place."
