Musnad Ahmad 15864

Translation

✧ 'Umar b. al-Khattab came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: O Messenger of God, I passed by a brother of mine from Qurayza, and he wrote for me some comprehensive passages from the Torah. Shall I present them to you? He said: The face of the Messenger of God ﷺ changed. 'Abd Allah said: I said to him: Do you not see what is on the face of the Messenger of God ﷺ? 'Umar said: We are content with God as Lord, with Islam as religion, and with Muhammad ﷺ as Messenger. He said: Then the Prophet ﷺ was relieved, and he said: By the One in whose hand is my soul, if Musa were to come among you and you followed him and abandoned me, you would go astray. You are my share among the nations, and I am your share among the prophets.
