Musnad Ahmad 389

Translation

✧ Umar sat in a place where the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to sit, with funeral processions passing by him. He said: A funeral passed by, and they praised it highly, so he said: “It is affirmed.” Then another funeral passed by, and they praised it highly, so he said: “It is affirmed.” Then another funeral passed by, and they said good things, so he said: “It is affirmed.” Then another funeral passed by, and they said: “This was the most dishonest of people.” He said: “The most dishonest of people is the one who lies most against Allah, then those next to them who lie against their own soul in their body.” They said: “What if four testify?” He said: “It is affirmed.” [They said: “And three?” He said: “And three,” and he said: “It is affirmed.”] They said: “And two?” He said: “It is affirmed, and if I had said one, that would be dearer to me than red camels.” He said: It was said to Umar: “Is this something you say by your own opinion, or something you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?” He said: “No, rather I heard it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.”
