وَبِالسَّنَدِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ الرُّومِيِّ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أُمِّ طَلْقٍ فَقُلْتُ مَا أَقْصَرَ سَقْفَ بَيْتِكِ هَذَا؟ قَالَتْ يَا بُنَيَّ إِنَّ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ كَتَبَ إِلَى عُمَّالِهِ
أَنْ لاَ تُطِيلُوا بِنَاءَكُمْ فَإِنَّهُ مِنْ شَرِّ أَيَّامِكُمْ
