أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو طَاهِرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مِحْمَشٍ الْفَقِيهُ، أَنْبَأَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ الْقَطَّانُ، ثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ السُّلَمِيُّ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْفِرْيَابِيُّ، قَالَ: ذَكَرَ سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: قِيلَ لِعُمَرَ ⦗٢٥٦⦘ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: أَلَا تَسْتَخْلِفُ؟ قَالَ: إِنْ أَتْرُكْ فَقَدْ تَرَكَ مَنْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَإِنْ أَسْتَخْلِفْ فَقَدِ اسْتَخْلَفَ مَنْ هُوَ خَيْرٌ مِنِّي أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: رَاغِبٌ وَرَاهِبٌ لَا أَتَحَمَّلُهَا حَيًّا وَمَيِّتًا، لَوَدِدْتُ أَنِّي نَجَوْتُ مِنْهَا كَفَافًا، لَا لِي وَلَا عَلَيَّ رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يُوسُفَ الْفِرْيَابِيّ.
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that it was said to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him): Will you not nominate (someone as) successor? He said: "If I leave (the matter), then one better than me left it before me, namely the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); and if I nominate, then Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), who was better than me, nominated before me." (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both)) said: They praised him, and he said: "With hope and with fear. I will not bear it, neither in life nor after death. I only wish that I could be released from it (on equal terms), with nothing for me (in reward) and nothing against me (as a burden)."
