حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي الطُّفَيْلِ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
رَأَيْتُ فِيمَا يَرَى النَّائِمُ كَأَنِّي أَنْزِعُ أَرْضًا وَرَدَتْ عَلَيَّ غَنَمٌ سُودٌ، وَغَنَمٌ عُفْرٌ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَنَزَعَ ذَنُوبًا أَوْ ذَنُوبَيْنِ، وَفِيهِمَا ضَعْفٌ وَاللهُ يَغْفِرُ لَهُ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ عُمَرُ فَنَزَعَ فَاسْتَحَالَتْ غَرْبًا، فَمَلَأَ الْحَوْضَ وَأَرْوَى الْوَارِدَةَ، فَلَمْ أَرَ عَبْقَرِيًّا أَحْسَنَ نَزْعًا مِنْ عُمَرَ، فَأَوَّلْتُ أَنَّ السُّودَ الْعَرَبُ، وَأَنَّ الْعُفْرَ الْعَجَمُ

✧ I saw in a dream, as a sleeper sees, as if I were drawing water from a well, and black sheep and light-colored sheep came to me. Then Abu Bakr came and drew a bucket or two, and there was weakness in them—and God forgives him. Then 'Umar came and drew, and it became a large bucket, and he filled the trough and gave drink to the thirsty. I have never seen a chief draw water better than 'Umar. I interpreted that the black sheep are the Arabs and the light-colored sheep are the non-Arabs.
