( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ بِبَغْدَادَ، أَنْبَأَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، ثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُوسَى، أَنْبَأَ مُوسَى بْنُ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ:
أَنَّ عُمَرَ ؓ خَرَجَ فِي يَوْمِ جُمُعَةٍ، فَقَطَرَ مِيزَابٌ عَلَيْهِ لِلْعَبَّاسِ، فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَقُلِعَ، فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ: قَلَعْتَ مِيزَابِي، وَاللهِ مَا وَضَعَهُ حَيْثُ كَانَ إِلَّا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ: وَاللهِ لَا يَضَعُهُ إِلَّا أَنْتَ بِيَدِكَ، ثُمَّ لَا يَكُونُ لَكَ سُلَّمٌ إِلَّا عُمَرَ، قَالَ: فَوَضَعَ الْعَبَّاسُ رِجْلَيْهِ عَلَى عَاتِقَيْ عُمَرَ ثُمَّ أَعَادَهُ حَيْثُ كَانَ

ʿUmar ؓ went out on a Friday, and water dripped on him from a spout belonging to al-ʿAbbās. So he ordered it, and it was pulled out. Al-ʿAbbās said: "You have pulled out my spout! By God, no one placed it where it was except the Messenger of God ﷺ, with his own hand." ʿUmar ؓ said: "By God, no one will put it back except you with your own hand, and you will have no ladder except ʿUmar." He said: So al-ʿAbbās placed his feet on the shoulders of ʿUmar, and then put it back where it had been.
