حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ: نَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ: نَا هِشَامُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ مَعْدَانَ:
أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ خَطَبَ يَوْمَ جُمُعَةٍ فَذَكَرَ نَبِيَّ اللهِ ﷺ، وَذَكَرَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ: إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ دِيكًا نَقَرَنِي ثَلَاثَ نَقَرَاتٍ، وَإِنِّي لَا أُرَاهُ إِلَّا لِحُضُورِ أَجَلِي، وَإِنَّ أَقْوَامًا يَأْمُرُونِي أَنْ أَسْتَخْلِفَ، وَإِنَّ اللهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لَمْ يَكُنْ لِيُضِيعَ دِينَهُ وَلَا خِلَافَتَهُ، وَالَّذِي بَعَثَ بِهِ نَبِيَّهُ ﷺ، فَإِنْ عَجِلَ بِي أَمْرٌ فَالْخِلَافَةُ شُورَى بَيْنَ هَؤُلَاءِ السِّتَّةِ الَّذِينَ تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ عَنْهُمْ رَاضٍ، وَإِنِّي قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ أَقْوَامًا يَطْعَنُونَ فِي هَذَا الْأَمْرِ أَنَا ضَرَبْتُهُمْ بِيَدِي هَذِهِ عَلَى الْإِسْلَامِ، فَإِنْ فَعَلُوا فَأُولَئِكَ أَعْدَاءُ اللهِ الْكَفَرَةُ الضُّلَّالُ، ثُمَّ إِنِّي لَنْ أَدَعَ بَعْدِي شَيْئًا هُوَ أَهَمُّ عِنْدِي مِنَ الْكَلَالَةِ وَمَا رَاجَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي شَيْءٍ مَا رَاجَعْتُهُ فِي الْكَلَالَةِ، وَمَا أَغْلَظَ لِي فِي شَيْءٍ مَا أَغْلَظَ لِي فِيهَا حَتَّى طَعَنَ بِإِصْبَعِهِ فِي صَدْرِي وَقَالَ: يَا عُمَرُ أَمَا تَكْفِيكَ آيَةُ الصَّيْفِ الَّتِي فِي آخِرِ سُورَةِ النِّسَاءِ ؟ وَإِنِّي إِنْ أَعِشْ أَقْضِ فِيهَا بِقَضِيَّةٍ يَقْضِي بِهَا مَنْ يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ، وَمَنْ لَا يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ، اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أُشْهِدُكَ عَلَى أُمَرَاءِ الْأَمْصَارِ فَإِنِّي إِنَّمَا بَعَثْتُهُمْ لِيُعَلِّمُوا النَّاسَ سُنَّةَ نَبِيِّهِمْ ﷺ وَيَقْسِمُوا فَيْئَهُمْ بَيْنَهُمْ وَيَرْفَعُوا إِلَيَّ مَا أَشْكَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْ، ثُمَّ إِنَّكُمْ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ تَأْكُلُونَ شَجَرَتَيْنِ لَا أُرَاهُمَا إِلَّا خَبِيثَتَيْنِ هَذَا الْبَصَلَ وَالثُّومَ، وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا وَجَدَ رِيحَهُمَا مِنَ الرَّجُلِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ أَمَرَ بِهِ فَأُخْرِجَ إِلَى الْبَقِيعِ، فَمَنْ أَكَلَهُمَا فَلْيُمِتْهُمَا طَبْخًا

✧ 'Umar b. al-Khattab delivered a sermon on Friday. He mentioned the Prophet of Allah ﷺ and mentioned Abu Bakr, then said: "I saw a rooster peck me three times, and I do not think it is but for the approach of my term. Some people order me to appoint a successor, but Allah, Blessed and Exalted, would not let His religion or His caliphate be lost, by the One Who sent His Prophet ﷺ. If a matter hastens me, the caliphate is a consultation among these six with whom the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died while he was pleased with them. I know that some people criticize this matter; I struck them with this hand of mine for the sake of Islam. If they do so, they are the enemies of Allah, the disbelievers, the misguided. Then I will not leave after me anything more important to me than kalalah. I have not reviewed anything with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as I reviewed kalalah, and he was not harsh with me about anything as he was harsh with me about it, until he poked his finger into my chest and said: 'O 'Umar, is not the verse of summer at the end of Surat al-Nisa' sufficient for you?' If I live, I will judge in it with a ruling by which those who read the Quran and those who do not read the Quran will judge. O Allah, I call You to witness over the commanders of the garrison cities, for I sent them only to teach the people the Sunnah of their Prophet ﷺ, to distribute their spoils among them, and to raise to me whatever is unclear to them of their affairs. Then, O people, you eat two plants that I do not see except as evil: this onion and garlic. I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, when he found their smell on a man in the mosque, order him to be taken out to al-Baqi'. So whoever eats them, let him kill them by cooking."
