أَنَّ نَافِعَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْحَارِثِ لَقِيَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ بِعُسْفَانَ، وَكَانَ عُمَرُ اسْتَعْمَلَهُ عَلَى مَكَّةَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ: مَنِ اسْتَخْلَفْتَ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْوَادِي ؟ قَالَ: اسْتَخْلَفْتُ عَلَيْهِمُ ابْنَ أَبْزَى. فَقَالَ: وَمَا ابْنُ أَبْزَى ؟ فَقَالَ: رَجُلٌ مِنْ مَوَالِينَا. فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: اسْتَخْلَفْتَ عَلَيْهِمْ مَوْلًى ؟! فَقَالَ: إِنَّهُ قَارِئٌ لِكِتَابِ اللهِ، عَالِمٌ بِالْفَرَائِضِ، قَاضٍ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: أَمَا إِنَّ نَبِيَّكُمْ ﷺ قَدْ قَالَ: إِنَّ اللهَ يَرْفَعُ بِهَذَا الْكِتَابِ أَقْوَامًا، وَيَضَعُ بِهِ آخَرِينَ
