حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حَيْوَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عَقِيلٍ زُهْرَةُ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَدَّهُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ هِشَامٍ قَالَ

كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَهْوَ آخِذٌ بِيَدِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لأَنْتَ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ إِلاَّ مِنْ نَفْسِي فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لاَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْكَ مِنْ نَفْسِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ فَإِنَّهُ الآنَ وَاللَّهِ لأَنْتَ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ نَفْسِي فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الآنَ يَا عُمَرُ

We were with the Prophet ﷺ and he was holding the hand of ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab. ʿUmar said to Him, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! You are dearer to me than everything except my own self." The Prophet ﷺ said, "No, by Him in Whose Hand my soul is, (you will not have complete faith) till I am dearer to you than your own self." Then ʿUmar said to him, "However, now, by Allah, you are dearer to me than my own self." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Now, O ʿUmar, (now you are a believer).
